The institution is not separate from us.
Its strategy, culture, rules, habits, and hierarchies were made by people. That means they can be remade by people, too.
When institutions drift from their purpose, the people within them usually know. They experience the friction. They see the patterns. They hold ideas that conventional change processes miss.
Institutional renewal begins by listening to that intelligence, recovering what matters, and building the way forward.
“The people who make up an institution are also the people who can remake it.”
