Bag om The Slow Lane: Why Quick Fixes Fail and How to Achieve Real Change

"Facing urgent social problems, we are drawn to quick fixes.

Society celebrates leaders who promise fast, easy solutions to the world's problems-but quick fixes are an illusion. The truth is, companies, relationships, and the world are all changed with slow, intentional actions. The author, a globally acclaimed social entrepreneur, offers a five-step process for taking the slow lane to change-the lane that gets you to the right place faster: Listening-to build trust, which can change hearts and minds and allow for something new to emerge; Holding the urgency-to accept that even in moments of crisis you can move only at the speed of trust instead of rushing into action; Sharing the agency-to create an inclusive environment where everyone can lead; Healing democracy-to build bridges that allow marginalized people to participate; Maintaining curiosity-to be inspired by nontraditional sources. The Slow Lane teaches that quick fixes are just mirages that fade, leaving us with the same broken systems. By following the principles taught in this book, readers can create lasting change through intentionality"--
