Indeed, an organization’s survival and growth is becoming more dependent on ability to apply new knowledge and technology as well as being able to quickly respond to the competitive changing environment. In addition, the basic economic resource is no longer capital, natural resources or labor, but is more likely to be knowledge. Currently, and in the future, the most successful organizations are likely to be those that are able to assess, anticipate and transform their environments, constantly developing themselves in the innovative ways. Radical Thinking Leaders today face a predicament that is wider in scope and more difficult to overcome than ever before - how to achieve sustainable business results while contending with accelerating, unprecedented change. The way leaders respond to this predicament will determine whether their organizations become market leaders, followers or failures. Roadmap for Radical Performance Improvement Page 11 of 11 POWER HR FORUM Q4E - 2005 Why is it that some leaders manage to get their organizations on a path of sustainable performance while others cannot? The answer may lie in the choice of the improvement strategy they employ.
