Do you know why most Transformation and Change projects fail? A lack of communication and poor coordination. We have worked on many successful Transformation and Change Projects. Our approach is different. Learn more: bit.ly/3jkk7pC

#Innovation & #creativity in planning are essential, and it's known nowadays that a plan will have to #adapt as it develops. Being open and ready to adapt can help leaders to guide their teams to the best possible outcomes in the face of change and uncertainty. #change #teamwork

A good #leader needs to be able to balance a range of skills in order to get the best out of their team. In experiences across the course of our careers, we tend to see a number of key skills in leaders that #inspire us. What do you think is the top skill to be a good leader?

A strong #leader reaps the rewards of saying “I don’t know everything there is to know about this” and inviting input from their team. This allows roadblocks to be tackled with a diverse range of #expertise and viewpoints, helping teams iterate towards the best possible results.

Are you worried about the level of risk within your plan? The truth is that no plan survives contact with reality. But what if you could reframe your question and ask: is my team robust enough to react? Learn more about #PressureTesting techniques here: bit.ly/3AueX4t
As a leader, making it clear that you are open to constructive criticism from your team can help create a sense of safety where employees feel safe speaking up about issues they face. #leadership #uncertainty insight.kellogg.northwestern…
Which organisations would you describe as having a culture of trust? In this short video, Chris looks back to his career in the British military and its strong culture of giving trust before it is earned. youtube.com/watch?v=0HpmHZMz… #culture #trust #leadership #communication
As a manager, simply stating a goal isn’t going to help you or your team reach it. Holding people accountable starts with outlining the steps it will take to get there. #leadership #accountabillity insight.kellogg.northwestern…
“But more often than not, what presents as a relationship problem—people blaming one another, bad group dynamics in meetings—is the result of the manager failing to clarify the team’s goals.” #leadership #TeamWork insight.kellogg.northwestern…
A high level of trust can transform an organisation. When the leader regularly practices candour & honesty about their plans, the rest of the organisation will gradually do the same. Chris discusses willful blindness & the techniques he uses to address it: bit.ly/33UAXJv
The question becomes do you assert a lot of control which you then spend your whole time managing, or do you give very few controls & spend your whole time managing the explosion? Chris on the value of #Sprints to keep track of individual & team progress: bit.ly/3GMi7mk

#PressureTesting provides a safe space to make mistakes and learn, giving you a better understanding of the environment you're about to enter and how people will react. In a #MergerAndAcquisition, this gives you a deep sense of the potential headwinds: bit.ly/33U4R08
