WhereDoWeStartasLeaders?•  Start with a theory •  Use PDSA – Plan - Do - Study - Act •  Abandon “Flavor of the Month” •  Learn about:

–  Constancy of purpose –  Adopt the new philosophy –  Improve constantly and forever –  Institute learning and self-improvement for all –  Leadership by training people – through example –  Break down barriers –  Drive out fear (build trust)

•  This enables your transformation •  Which enables the organizational transformation!
