About the Wind of Change
This enterprise of the heart is firmly based upon the concept
of the Learning Organisation as the only means of maintaining
organisational integrity and community health. This
concept underpins all other initiatives such as TQM and
"Excellence". It is a precursor to the formation
of effective and sustainable partnerships within and between
businesses and the community which all profitable businesses
ultimately serve. How do you define and measure profit?
Statement of values
| Ethos |
Each individual is free
to choose his or her own destiny. |
| Pathos |
Competition and power can
give way to co-operation and trust. |
| Logos |
Individuals and organisations
may choose to enable each other in the community at
large. This results in synergy, optimal profits, and
is ecologically sound. |
Mission
The Wind of Change
is confirmed in this site to be Ruach of The Bible. The
temporal description is that of a catalyst which seeks to
change the pulse of the community at large, and within business
in particular. It intends to be the model Learning Organisation
in Scotland.
Goals
Our commitment is that all individuals
have the right to a covenant relationship with their organisation
as a discrete community. We therefore journey with our clients
and colleagues towards our heart's desire.
As a client-centred enterprise we do not offer packaged
solutions, but seek to build client autonomy.
Whilst a series of tailored learning events (as distinct
from courses) can be provided, these are regarded as building
blocks for organisational development "on the job"
Community?
Individuals and organisations helping each other to enjoy
learning life and business skills, thus gaining an even
deeper sense of our own collective identity. Only in this
way are organisational restrictions overcome and performance
optimised.
Ian McLean
I have a total
of twenty years' experience in management and organisational
development with an Industrial Training Board and laterally
with British Gas. For the last ten years I have been involved
with community-building in the voluntary and education sectors.
I am committed to learning based on the paradigm shift from
competition and power, to trust and co-operation which is
fast becoming a commercial reality even on the accountant's
bottom line. I have no need to be an authority, merely a
catalyst —
as a vessel of The Holy Spirit in Common Unity with others. (This does not refer to spiritualism which is anathema to Love) I work in The Gift of Grace of our Lord Jesus Chirst alone. I am supported by thirty prayerful friends.
Why should we work together?
Why did you finish reading this page? Was it just curiosity?
If not, you may want to consider the consequences for you
and your organisation of not "letting go of the shore".
Its not what we do,
its the way that we do it —
