Leading
physicists, Nobel Laureates and philosophers have long argued over the validity
of “TIME” and how it is a manipulating factor into the lives of humanity. Ancient
mystics regard time as an “ILLUSION”; something which is abashedly man-made. It
is nothing but a continuation of memory from one event to another.
In
terms of organizational growth, “CHANGE” remains a constant theme but very much
a time-bound concept. We live our lives through a clock and fail to
realize that “change
itself is instantaneous”. Change doesn’t require time and actually operates
outside of it. What takes time is to appoint ourselves to bring that change; to
finally make a decision and stick with it. And deciding to do something
is not a time-based phenomenon - one can do that during the day, in the middle
of the night and on a moment’s notice. Then the chain-reaction starts and
change begins to manifest.
Founders,
CEOs and those running the company must understand the need for continuous CHANGE,
which brings forth freshness and life-force to the nervous system of a
corporate brand. Staying updated and cutting-edge is the demand of these
“modern times”. Old replaces the new and the blood-supply remains oxygenated.
It is a simple scenario of “Stagnation vs.
Free-Flow”.
Leading
brands not only understand that concept but also make that a very part of HR
strategy. Like the steering-wheel of a car which needs to shift continuously
during a drive, CHANGE is an inevitable growth escalator we must get on to
broaden our horizons.
Change
allows brands to reach better options and possibilities. And TIME simply has no
meaning here.
