The Stubborn Donkey

One of the themes that we discussed on our Effective Partnerships course was 'the stubborn donkey'. Here is the video:

The video has some key messages. 

• We realised that to help people move in the right direction we need to find the right motivation. There will always be some resistance to new ideas, but involving the team in planning and developing that idea will make people want to take part. 
• It is important to take a step back and consider a different approach if something is working.
• You need to constantly need to review progress - you can't wait until the end before realising that something is not working as you wanted.
• It is important to have fun and value your team!

It's amazing what you can learn from a stubborn donkey! But then I found this!
