This document discusses Real Time Strategic Change (RTSC), an approach to organizational change. It begins with definitions of RTSC and lists some of its key principles over time, condensing from 50 aphorisms to 20 principles to 6 polarity pairs. These principles focus on energizing plans for both the present and future, balancing individual and collective growth, integrating diverse perspectives to find shared meaning, using information to both seek new understanding and focus efforts, and balancing delegated and participative decision-making to accelerate change. The document then provides examples of applying RTSC in different organizations and situations to effectively launch large-scale changes.
