"It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But thereis no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous andexciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power.
-Alan Cohen
"Life has got a habit of not standing hitched. You got to ride it like you find it. You got to change withit. If a day goes by that don't change some of your old notions for new ones, that is just about like
trying to milk a dead cow." -Woodie Guthrie

COMMUNICATION TIPS
When you cannot tell people what, tell them howthe whatis going to be determined and when.
When you run into a delay, explain.
Tell them what you are doing about the problems causing the delay.
Tell them what you wish you could tell them.
Tell them you know that this is a difficult time for them.
Tell them that you hope they will hang in there.
Do not tell them "Trust us. Be loyal. Stop complaining."

For one thing, Barbara already goes wayabove her revenue targets. She is already doing an excellent job, and the manager is not sure how totell her that she needs to keep doing this and more. Secondly, the manager is at a loss for how toschedule in appropriate training for Barbara, so that she is able to perform her new duties.
