The Mountain Climb
The goal of any mountain climb is to reach the summit, but any mountain worth climbing requires an organized and careful approach. You cannot run to the top of the mountain; you must conquer it in stages. You cannot start near the summit, skipping the lower elevations; you need to be exposed to the thinning air in gradual intervals so your body is prepared for the changes ahead. It is the same for an organization preparing to move towards the “summit” of an environment that fully engages top performing employees.
