These thoughts and beliefs are not necessarily the thoughts or beliefs of those who attend The FUSION! My mind is off the wall and sprat-tic to some and may be under the influence of coffee! If you like comfortable and easy then this blog is not for you! If you like to challenge status quo and look outside the box and think what if and is that possible if I try then we will get along well! I love to call all into question that which is and ask the hard questions of why? P.S. No comments will be posted as anonymous! Get a pair!

Leaders Meeting notes from December

In business, life, marriage, etc we are all faced with the cry for change.  At the Fusion we are establishing a model for change at the very core of how things are done.  Everyone has heard if its not broke don't fix it.  To change the way things look or the model which we use doesn't mean it has to be broke or that its wrong.  The model many times was a good idea in its time, but times change and so must the models we use to teach His message of the Kingdom of God!  
Are you open to new ideas?  What kind of process do we establish to work through all ideas good and bad?  How do we let the younger generation get in on the process to share there ideas?

LEADERS CHALLENGE THE PROCESS!

·        Leaders must challenge the process!  It’s our nature to never settle.
·        Leaders change the process because they think their way is better.
·        Deep in your heart you feel you would change things if you were in charge around here! - Every leader thinks this way!
·        If you are a leader you think “I would do it better” because, that’s what leaders do!
·        As a leader I am limited to seeing the world through my filter.


Creating a culture of ideas!

·        The Mission & vision of the Fusion is permanent other than the wording, but our model is temporary and needs to be forever changing!
·        If someone can’t get on board with the vision or mission we need to be o.k. with encouraging them to talk to leadership.
·        Everything in leadership that’s in place used to be a good idea when it was 1st created or in its time.
·        Everything eventually becomes status quo!
·        Don’t challenge the old without proper appreciation for its motive.
·        Progress is always preceded by change!  If you don’t want change then we can never have progress!
·        Any system resists change unless change is the system it’s built on!  The Fusion is built upon the foundation that the model and process is always open to change!
·        There must be constant challenge to the status quo because every good idea eventually becomes status quo!
·        Every new idea in time becomes status quo.
·        Everything currently in place was a good idea at one time
·        Follow through and debrief later, never verbalize your frustration with the process in front of others, this dams up the process which ideas flow through!
·        Raving fan publically & an honest critic privately prompts a unified vision!
·        Public loyalty creates private leverage; create opportunities where people can challenge the ideas with a creative process.
