Driving change in an organization can be frustrating when people aren’t where you want them to be. As leaders, we often have a vision of how things should be—how teams should operate and think - but they are often not there yet.

Too often, people enter conversations with a set agenda. They are so focused on what they want to say that they don’t notice whether the other person is with them or not.
