A lot of people ask me “so if our organisation wanted to improve its effectiveness, how should we go about it? Sometimes silence or a knowing “Hmmm” is the best answer. People often work best when driven by their own curiosity, and the need to discover their own answers, I find. 8220;If you meet Buddha on the road, kill him.”.
