Progress to be made
\n+++++++++++++++++++<\/p>\n

Complaining about what’s wrong won’t make anything better. Move beyond mere complaints, and do the difficult work to create a positive way forward.<\/p>\n

Punishing those who are to blame won’t improve the situation. Get past the blaming and turn your attention toward understanding, cooperation, and creating value for everyone involved.<\/p>\n

Getting rid of what’s working poorly can leave you with nothing that works at all. See if you can find a way to improve rather than just destroy.<\/p>\n

Sometimes it’s necessary to tear it all down and start from scratch. But that’s rarely as simple or straightforward as it sounds.<\/p>\n

When the situation is broken, you don’t have to break it even more. Instead, look for what you can salvage, and use that as your starting point.<\/p>\n

Avoid the temptation to descend into destruction and retribution. There’s great progress to be made by everyone, so put all your focus on that.<\/p>\n
