The document provides suggestions for how HR can improve engagement through hiring, benchmarking, building an engaging culture, and developing engaging leaders.
This document outlines a program to align a leadership team's behaviors and potential with the organization's business strategy and leadership brand.

Leaders play a key role in employee engagement by creating a committed workplace, setting clear expectations, and engaging employees in the organization's vision. To be successful, leaders must develop relationships with staff to understand their motivations, build trust through accessibility, and ensure fair treatment. Regular communication is also important to help employees understand how their role impacts the organization's success. Empowering employees to make decisions builds their commitment and loyalty.
This document introduces InsideOut Coaching, which promotes workplace coaching to help employees make better decisions, commit to actions, and achieve results.

Sink or Swim? Keys to Helping Newly Promoted Managers Succeed | Webinar 05.13.15BizLibrary
Newly promoted managers face long odds for success. In fact, most of them fail. The sad truth of the matter is the failure rates for newly promoted managers can be attributed more to organizational failures than to the failures or shortcomings of the managers themselves. So, what can we do as HR and learning professionals to change the odds of success? In this program, Chris Osborn of BizLibrary will discuss effective strategies to tilt the odds towards success.

A Focus on Change
Change is a process of building ownership and capacity in others as you proceed. School improvement efforts focus on the culture of the school with a focus on student achievement and corresponding instructional improvement. Schools cannot improve in isolation – they need to connect with other schools and link to district support, resources and policy implementation. Quality Leadership is needed at all levels, i.e., district, schools and classrooms.

It provides examples of how to improve focus on aligning, equipping and sustaining employees to drive lasting behavior change that achieves business goals.

This document discusses conflict management and change management. It defines conflict as a state of open fighting or prolonged battle. Change management is transitioning individuals, teams, and organizations to a desired future state. There are different types of conflict including intrapersonal, interpersonal, intragroup, and interorganizational. Causes of conflict include communication, behavior, and structure. Managing conflict involves making an approach, sharing perspectives, building understanding, agreeing on solutions, and planning next steps. Change management is defined as coordinating a transition from one situation to another to achieve lasting organizational change. It involves creating urgency, building a team, creating a vision, communicating the vision, removing obstacles, achieving quick wins, integrating the change.
This document discusses change management and provides guidance on how to successfully manage organizational change. It recommends understanding the current state, recognizing that change starts from leadership, giving employees tools to enable change, showing active support for change, building a community around change efforts, and using Kotter's 8-step model for leading change which involves increasing urgency, building a team, creating a vision, empowering employees, creating short-term wins, communicating, sustaining momentum, and institutionalizing changes.
Driving cultural change
The hardest part of a business transformation is changing the organizational culture – the mindset and instincts of the people in the company. Organizational culture is like an iceberg, with most of its weight and bulk below the surface.
An existing culture is based on shared philosophies, ideologies, values, assumptions, beliefs and attitudes. Transforming, sustaining and allowing for evolution of a culture is a complex process requiring a clearly articulated strategic aim, underpinning objectives and long term programme coordination and mobilization of resources.
So, what are the keys to SHIFTS a cultural change?
The document discusses the differences between leadership and management. It provides definitions and examples of each:
- Leadership is about motivating people through vision and inspiration to achieve goals, while management focuses on day-to-day operations like planning, staffing, and problem-solving.
- Several experts contribute perspectives on the distinction. John Kotter's 8 steps of change leadership emphasizes creating urgency and empowering others. Warren Bennis contrasts leaders with managers who command versus empower and inspire.
- While distinct, both leadership and management are valuable roles that organizations need. Leaders drive innovation but may lack management skills, and managers excel at execution but not large-scale influence. Together they can achieve greater impact.

Managing Organizational Change
The invention in the business world has led to rapid transformation in many Organizations. In order to remain in production, business organizations are faced with an inevitable need for change. Transformations determine which companies thrive, and that fades. To effect the move, the company faces resistance since you don't know how to go about it, who to involve, and what is in it for employees (Burnes, B., & Randall, J. 2015). There exist many theories that try to explain management change, but the outstanding one is Kotter's 8-step change model. According to Kotter, successful change in an organization such as Walmart retail cooperation involves systematic steps these steps are Establishing a sense of urgency, create a coalition, Develop vision and strategy, communicate the vision, empower broad-based action, Generating short-term wins, consolidating gains and producing more change and anchoring new approaches into the society. These steps and their application are discussed below.
Creating a sense of urgency
Intelligence urgency refers to communicating with employees on the importance of acting promptly and without delay. It describes a positive state of mind that managers should evoke to those they lead. It is not a tool of pointing how competitors are better off or showing people poor sales statistics, but, opens a convincing honest dialogue about the internal affairs of the business (Centrella, S. 2019). As a leader of a company such as Walmart retail store, one can do the following to create a sense of urgency: see probable uncertainties and extend proposal of what can take place in future, and also requests outside help from customer and business people to reinforce his case.
Creating a coalition
At this stage of transformation of a company, the management unites a group of people who have qualities to lead and can facilitate teamwork. Convincing group staff that change is important takes able leadership qualities and visible assistance from the organization. In order to create a strong coalition, one has to spot leaders and stakeholders who commit one to team building and assess the team for weaker areas.
Vision for change
Change comes about because of the idea that things can be handled differently. Having a clear vision can help employees understand why they have to do this and that in the company. If the workforce sees for themselves what you intend to archive, the directive given tends to make sense and is followed without resistance (Lawrence, P. 2014). What one needs to do in order to archive vision change includes determining the principles that are essential to change, documenting in summary where you see the company in prospect, create strategies to meet objectives i ...

Effective Change Management:
The Simple Truth
I
n a previous life I remember
walking into my new boss's
office for my induction talk
- it was my first day of my first
people management job and
I was full of excitement and
anticipation. Then he sat me
down and said: "Your job is
to get the unwilling to do the
impossible for the ungrateful."
I nearly turned around
and walked back out the
door! If we put our hands
on our hearts how many of
us would admit that change
management sometimes
feels like this? A recent
change management study
by Towers Watson surveyed
over 600 organisations that
have recently gone through
significant change and
unearthed the practices that
are at the heart of effective
change management. They are
simple truths and can make
the difference between success
and failure in many cases, but
evidence suggests that they
are often forgotten when in
the midst of a challenging
change project.
It is a fact that change is
a constant reality for any
organisation looking to
survive and thrive in these
turbulent and uncertain
times. When you boil it
up, change is about doing
things differently or doing
different things. Whether
you have to change, help
others change or define what
the change is, we all have a
vested interest in getting it
right. Our recently published
research shines a light on
what those organisations
that are effective at change
management have in common
when it comes to managing
change. So bearing this in
mind, the first issue to put to
bed is what do we mean here
when we say 'effective change
management'? In a nutshell,
if change programmes
achieve their stated goals on
time and within budget and
deliver sustainable benefit
then that would fit most
people's definition. We used
this definition to classify
organisations that are really
good at change management
and then looked at what they
did well in comparison with
their peers.
Significantly and perhaps
not surprisingly, we also
found that those businesses
that plan and execute change
well are also the ones that
are outperforming their
peers when it comes to
bottom line performance.
Companies highly effective
at both communication and
other change management
activities are 2.5 times as likely
to outperform their peers that
are not highly effective in
either area.
So considering the
prevalence of change -
and the effect of change
management on bottom-line
performance - there are plenty
of reasons to take a hard look
at how those organisations
are approaching change
management and to learn the
lessons.
From our research we
found that the following
are self-evidently true
Effective change management
is a little bit art and a little
bit science. The best change
practitioners balance rational,
data driven approaches with
a deep understanding of
emotional drivers. It's about
understanding the unique
needs of the business and its
people and then applying
insight and the right tools
to deliver the change. It is.

Key Elements Of Effective Performance Dialogue - Seetha RaniSeetha Rani KP
Development generally begins with a realization of current or future need and the motivation to do something about it. Organisations of all sizes are now turning to ongoing performance dialogue to tie evaluation and evolution into the entire development of talent on a long-term basis. By fostering this practice within a team, we can avoid surprises and address doubts before they can grow, and recognise and improve performance over time.
The 70:20:10 Model for Learning and Development, a commonly used formula within the training profession, holds that 70 per cent of learning occurs on the job, 20 per cent from exposure to external forums, mentors or others, and 10 per cent in a classroom setting. In today’s context, the key to evolving people, organisations and communication lies in the 70% of hands-on experience, where employees can discover and define their skills in a work environment. It's a two-way ongoing process between employees and the organisation.
WHY DIVERSITY, EQUITY, AND INCLUSION ARE IMPORTANT FOR YOUR BUSINESS.pdfSyedZakirHussian
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) is a buzzword that has been gaining momentum in recent years, and for good reason. In today’s globalized and rapidly changing business world, creating a workplace that values diversity, promotes equity, and fosters inclusion is no longer just a “nice-to-have” – it’s a necessity. Not only does a focus on DEI attract top talent and help retain employees, but it can also lead to better decision-making, improved problem-solving, increased innovation and creativity, and increased market share.
But despite the numerous benefits of DEI, many businesses are still struggling to make it a priority. It’s not always easy to overcome unconscious biases, encourage open and honest communication, or allocate resources and set goals. However, the truth is that creating a diverse and inclusive workplace is a journey, not a destination. By making DEI a priority and taking concrete steps to foster a diverse and inclusive culture, businesses can reap the rewards and position themselves for long-term success.
So, why is DEI such a hot topic in the business world? Simply put, diverse perspectives lead to better decision-making, increased creativity, and improved problem-solving. Studies have shown that diverse teams make better decisions 87% of the time, are more innovative and generate more creative solutions. Additionally, a workplace that values diversity, equity, and inclusion can lead to increased employee engagement, satisfaction, and retention – all key factors in the success of a business. So, let’s dive in and explore why DEI should be a top priority for your business!
The document describes Viral ChangeTM, an innovative approach to managing organizational change through defining and encouraging a small set of non-negotiable behaviors. These behaviors are imitated and spread through peer networks to create sustainable cultural changes. The process identifies champions to launch and endorse the new behaviors. Internal communication supports the spread of change through storytelling and viral messaging. Additional services like training and accelerated conversations help organizations implement Viral ChangeTM.

The document provides guidance on organizational transformation and social change. It emphasizes engaging people before and during change, clearly communicating the reasons for change, and becoming adaptable to change rather than treating it as a single event. It stresses involving people, acting as a role model, explaining the reasons for change, and providing support and tools to help people work through change. It also recommends having a clear communication plan, keeping everyone focused on the long-term goals, and telling a compelling story about the reasons for and vision of change.

Creating intelligent content: How to automate personalised, one-to-one market...Empired
Now more than ever as organisations we need to accelerate our digital engagement and use our content intelligently, sensitively and helpfully.
One of the only ways to connect with customers is digitally, and so the challenge for us as brands is how do we deliver a relevant and engaging experience at scale? And, within that, how do we make sure that we're tailoring the right content, to reach our audiences in the right ways, at the right time?
In this webinar, we'll discuss the importance of personalisation in delivering an outstanding customer experience and the challenges marketers face when it comes to delivering true one-to-one personalised journeys. We will then look how Episerver's new Content Intelligence and Content Recommendations can, through the power of AI, help marketers gain deep content insights and automate true one-to-one, personalised marketing at scale.
The Coronavirus pandemic had a profound impact on the way we work. Almost overnight, organisations have had to learn how to work remotely – and collaborate effectively – often by the most expedient means possible.
The good news is that the flexible, remote working practices and tools that always seemed like a good idea in principle, have now been tested under extreme conditions and, in many cases, have been proven to be highly effective. To maintain the momentum and continue to realise the benefits, it's essential that we balance that flexibility and immediacy with governance and management. This is particularly true with 'easy to use' tools designed with user empowerment at their heart, such as Microsoft Teams, Zoom and others.
In this webinar, we explore common pain points and problems arising from the explosive growth of these tools and potential solutions to those problems. We will hear from Anthony Martino, IT Operations Manager at flybuys (Australia), on how they plan to balance user empowerment with effective governance and management. We will look at practical approaches available to all customers, to continue realising the benefits of flexible working in a secure, streamlined and controlled manner.

Empired Convergence 2017 - Bringing your People on the Change JourneyEmpired
Change management is the structured approach to preparing people for new ways of working needed for future performance. It represents 75% or more of the total benefits of a change. There are three types of change - developmental, transitional, and transformational - requiring different levels of change management support. Measuring performance before, during, and after a change shows the effectiveness of change management activities in supporting digital transformation and realizing benefits.

Empired Convergence 2017 - Keeping Pace, Staying Safe in the Digital WorldEmpired
This document discusses how organizations can keep pace with digital transformation and security challenges. It recommends developing a cybersecurity program to understand threats, identify risks, build defensive strategies, and continuously validate effectiveness. It also suggests reviewing network perimeters as traditional firewalls are no longer sufficient, and establishing identity as the new control plane since users, apps and data now extend beyond network boundaries. Identity-driven security is presented as a solution to gain visibility and control over users, devices, apps and data both on-premises and in the cloud.
With more than 50,000 new malware created every day organisations can no longer afford to risk the financial and reputational impacts of a security or data breach, which can be too much for a business to recover from. Because of this, IT managers face increasing scrutiny and pressure from CEOs, managing directors and boards to prove that they are keeping the organisation secure.
The changing threat landscape means organisations need to be vigilant and smarter about security. While businesses still face threats from infected devices and malware, attackers have also moved beyond that. For example, there is an increasing number of targeted email attacks with cyber criminals spending time to monitor communications so they can imitate emails that are so sophisticated that even relatively savvy users will open them.
This webinar will explore the building blocks required to ensure you have the roadmap required to best protection against cyber attacks. We will provide you with a high level view of the following topics:
· Audit and discovery – What are your weaknesses and are you compliant?
· Education – Do your employees know when not to open that attachment?
· Policy – Do you have the right policies for your industry?
· Technology – Where to start and what has changed?

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

7. Drive the change from inside the business (embed mostly within BAU).
Engage everyone in a collaborative way throughout the change process.
