Bill,

In my opinion, the "silver bullet" mindset relates to fast results. "Give me the quick turn" rather than the lasting results.

Part of a leader's mission is to move people and organizations from Point A to Point B. Point B has to be compelling and, as you state, purposeful. If people buy into Point B, then a motivation of what "can be" begins to take hold. Once this happens, it is then working with teams to determine what processes, systems, structures, etc. need to be in place to achieve Point B. This takes effort, and it may likely take time. The impact, however, is longer lasting and more meaningful.
