But how can we inspire people for…

After finishing the second exchange on #NewProcess, I would like to share my learnings with you: It’s all about the purpose: Everybody should know WHY a specific process is in place and what benefits it creates. – Something that has been neglected for far too long. When involving the people, different cultures should be taken…
