Lesson #3: Experiment and Innovate
“I am in the prime of senility,” Franklin once said. Known for his often seemingly eccentric musings and scientific experiments, Franklin was never one to shelve his ideas or shun his research in the face of public ridicule. He was one of the most forward thinkers of his time and made a name for himself by not only embracing change, but also by directing the change itself.

Without change we stagnate
Four Benefits of Embracing Change
You don't need anyone to tell you that the world is undergoing many changes right now; that's pretty obvious. What may not be so obvious is your ability to adapt to the changes that are necessary for your business to survive and thrive in the changing market. How do you set yourself up for success when global changes are affecting the future of your business? You find out where the change is headed and adapt to meet the demand.
Vision or Trust
Both are effective methods of embracing change but at least one must be employed.
Embracing Change
Whether in our personal or professional lives, there is one guarantee that holds true - there will be change… and now, more than ever! As Alan Deutschman shares in his book, Change or Die, “Change doesn’t have to be something that happens to you. You can make it happen – actively, intentionally, and deliberately – if you develop an understanding of how change really works…” One of the ways we can begin to understand how change really works, in order to be more open to it, is to ask ourselves better questions about circumstances (or people) in our lives. Enjoy this excerpt from another one of Sheri's workshops for entrepreneurs. She has become an expert at not only at'embracing change' yet 'inspiring and facilitating change' as well!
Make Change Easy Get Involved
The level and intimacy of involvement in change makes a big difference to how people are able to respond. Taking 'control' of change can be fruitful, enlightening and, yes, enjoyable. If you are undergoing change, think it through, and then think how you can enable your people to get involved too...

Change Is Here To Stay Thoughts From A Change Agent
"The trouble with the future is that it usually arrives before we're ready for it." Arnold H. Glasow Whenever someone refers to me as a "Change Agent," I accept it as a real compliment because that is a very accurate description of what I am. Since change is here to stay, I wanted to share some thoughts about change and some strategies on dealing with change. Change in the workplace and in our lives is inevitable. The way most people deal with change can vary from trying to ignore it; getting angry; wishful thinking and/or running away. A very positive way to deal with change is to look at change as a spawning ground for new opportunities for the business or organization.

The Value of Change
Marketing people can be divided into two categories: those who resist change and those who welcome change. Guerrillas are in the second category. They not only welcome change, but they also are ready for change and respond to change.

Profitable Online Business Ideas and the Recession: Keys to Success Part 2
In the last article we discussed the need for change. Without the willingness to change, nothing will change in our life and circumstances. We can want change or things to change all we want. We can want change or desire for changes in our life till we are blue in the face, but nothing will happen till we take a step towards that change. You hear people all the time talking about wanting things to change in their lives, but sadly nothing ever does. Why? They seem to want things to change. They agonize over the things going wrong in their life, but nothing changes. In truth, things usually get worse.
Do you have it in you? - Embracing new forms of Leadership
Which are the qualities of an all-embracing leadership style? How can you be at the same time dynamic, confident and enthusiastic? I recently came across a list of leadership qualities that I consider the cornerstones of an all-embracing leadership model.
"Acceptance"... and growth
Acceptance simply means "EMBRACING WHAT IS". Acknowledging the "what is"...may include yourself, your spouse, significant other, job, house, health or a set of circumstances. With ACCEPTANCE, we embrace PEACE. And, it's in this peace that miracles happen. For those of us that thrive on personal growth and are constantly looking for ways to improve, and better ourselves, the idea of "accepting" ourselves may feel like embracing "mediocrity" or "settling". Won't I get complacent if I totally accept myself? Will I lose my edge or drive? If I "accept" my significant other just as he/she is, does that mean I'm encouraging them to stop growing? NO. NO. NO.
Change is a Fact of Life --- Six Keys That Make a Difference
Without change your company becomes stagnant, uncompetitive and boring. A leader's major responsibility is to create change, instigate change and then manage change effectively. In spite of the fact that creating change is a key competency required to be an effective leader, most people resist change. This includes leaders themselves. However, effective leaders accept change as a positive force and they are able to convince those that follow them that change is nothing more than a roadmap to a new and better destination. How do these leaders minimize that natural born resistance to change?
