\"daverave\"All of us are on a roller-coaster ride of change.\u00a0 The world is transitioning.\u00a0 It\u2019s not just a bad economy; it\u2019s a new economy. <\/strong> It\u2019s not just the loss of jobs; it\u2019s the loss of sectors and segments of services and products.\u00a0 How do we respond to this current chaos creatively?<\/p>\n

One of the ways is to stay teachable. <\/strong> And yet the very challenge in times of crisis and change is to actually be open and learn something new, to re-enter your world at a new place, to recognize that there are still major opportunities, new products and services to be discovered and offered that no one dreamed of even five years ago.<\/p>\n

Those who are going to be leading the way<\/strong> in the new wave of wealth-creation in the years ahead\u00a0 will be those who are teachable.\u00a0 The question is, are you?\u00a0 Here are seven signs that you and your staff are not teachable.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. You don\u2019t read<\/strong>, and you brag about it.<\/li>\n
  2. You won\u2019t listen <\/strong>to the insight of other significant people in your life.\u00a0 You dismiss them as negative and disloyal.<\/li>\n
  3. You reject change <\/strong>even when the signs point to the fact that you will die if you continue on this course of action.<\/li>\n
  4. You turn preferences <\/strong>into principles.<\/li>\n
  5. Your fear of failure overrides t<\/strong>he need to change while you still can.<\/li>\n
  6. You\u2019re still nursing old slights <\/strong>and wrongs done to you by people both inside and outside of your movement, organization, and family.<\/li>\n
  7. Your conversation is more about the past<\/strong> and the achievements and glory that you enjoyed rather than conversations of faith and vision about the hopes and dreams of the future and the things that can be accomplished.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    You could probably add to this list.\u00a0 But sit down with your wife , your family, or your staff and walk through these seven and ask yourself, \u201cDo any of these apply to us?\u201d\u00a0 And if they do, \u201chow can we change and become teachable in this brand new, wall-less, wireless world in which we live?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
