It's interesting to think about desperate changes vs. inspired changes. Seems like a wasted opportunity to ignore inspiration only to wait for desperation to spur us on. Such is the life of survivors, not thrivers. Agreed on both accounts.

In some ways that is still the case. People change for two reasons – inspiration (comfort) or desperation (affliction). The truth is that most of the time it is desperation that nudges folks along. Good posting – change is the norm. Lots to think about, thanks Dustin.

As the business developer for our company, I see what the industry needs (outside) and work for what changes we must make to be around in the future based on those needs (inside). I think the salesman/biz dev. must be able to bring the outside friction inside so that the change can be, as you term it, authentic change. Great post!
