Change is hard but not changing or changing too little or too slowly can be catastrophic. In a VUCA world nimbly navigating new paths will be worth it in the long term.

Thanks a ton, Lori. And I think we’re all in the same place …. I recognize that something different is needed, but I’m not exactly sure what it is …. We’re in the midst of all figuring that out, which could lead to quite a renaissance period for direct selling.

Ha! Well, I’m glad that the message was received! Trust me … I was still relatively diplomatic!

Doing something new is not easy for some. Unfortunately, “new” means that something may be wrong with the “old”, and egos can get in the way! Particularly true for some Founders and CEOs that have experienced, and are emboldened, by past success. Yes, past performance is a good indicator for future success, but in today’s rapidly changing business and consumer environment you need to adapt, constantly! Get a second set of eyes on the business, humble yourself, and listen carefully. Every business has room for improvement, and some of those improvements may even change the trajectory.

Especially being in the industry 20+ years! I’m open to understanding “what is the new thing to keep them here”. I realize what got them, me here won’t get me there…but what will? My tag line was “when I go to work I always end up at a party”
I want to have my eyes wide open to help my company and my organization.
Good article Brett. Feel like a cliff hanger …and I look forward to understanding more ☺️

Thanks a ton, Connie, especially knowing you’ve lived it and breathed it and pioneered it all as well as anyone!
