My good friend Carsten Ohm just returned from ten days in South Africa with the Pioneers of Change. This is a group of people who are

developing the commitment, understanding, and a network of relationships to create or transform systems that they may come to serve Life, and operate in life-affirming ways.

Their advice on creating that change is pretty cool:
[ Be yourself ] What are your values, your talents, your purpose?
Find [ what really matters ] to you, bringing meaning to your work.
[ Start now ] Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.
[ Engage with others ] Don’t go it alone.
[ Never stop asking questions ] Develop your ability to probe and wonder.

That’s good advice – I may have to steal it for our work on the “Happy at Work” project.
