It’s enough to know it’s broke..

I was up at St Pauls yesterday, and visited the protest camp.  I have heard various comments from ‘experts’ and commentators condemning the fact that all these people have different agendas, and the fact that they have no clear message or agenda.  I disagree.  I think it can be very important, and valuable to recognise that something isn’t working and to say so clearly.  Indeed it is the first step towards Change (see step 1 of our 5 step Change model.)

These issues are complex, and they impact many people negatively.  It is little wonder that these people don’t have a solution.  It is okay, however, for them to tell our leaders that they need to be focusing their energy on this issues.  Change begins with the recognition that something isn’t working!
