Fire up that ☕️ coffee pot. It’s Monday! Today, we’re going to do things a little differ… Wait, we always do it differently! Buckle up for your Monday Morning Rocketfuel.

“When the winds of change blow, some people build walls and others build windmills.” -Chinese Proverb

Change is inevitable.

It happens daily whether we are ready or not. Anything that seems permanent today will likely change tomorrow.

Don’t believe me? When I started building websites, my biggest competitor was the phone book.

The real question is how do we deal with it? We can either embrace change or hunker down and protect our precious way of doing things.

Let’s explore embracing change. A 3-year study of US companies promoting an agile, learning environment had some interesting results.

Nimble companies:

  • retain more customers,
  • outpace competitors in creativity, and
  • grow profits faster.

Right now sounds like a good time kick down some walls.
