Change Your Culture to Change Your ResultsSean Dalton
This document discusses how to change an organization's culture to achieve better results. It argues that culture is defined by shared purpose, values, and performance standards, and that culture uniquely shapes the results and relationships an organization achieves. The document provides four ideas for changing culture: 1) define the future desired culture, 2) create new habits that embody the culture, 3) maintain a sense of urgency about cultural change, and 4) demonstrate discipline in implementing and sustaining cultural changes. Leaders must actively define and model the new culture to create an environment where change can occur.

Creating Alignment for Agile Change - Agile and Beyond 2015Jason Little
The document discusses how organizational change initiatives often fail due to a lack of alignment across the organization. It proposes using canvases to help create alignment by involving people, accepting uncertainty, and using feedback-driven approaches. Specifically, canvases can be used at the organizational level to establish a shared vision and strategy for change. They can also be used at the team/department level to plan experiments that contribute to the overall change effort and track progress. Regular review of the canvases helps maintain engagement and momentum for change. The document advocates for using canvases to facilitate open conversations about change rather than focusing on blame.

Conference talk at Plone Conference 2019 in Ferrara, Italy.
A traditional client-to-service provider work relationship is predicated on a hierarchy in which the needs and wishes of the client take precedence over all other considerations. In a rapidly paced work world under the increasing influence of accelerated technological change, such a traditional approach can have detrimental effects on the wellbeing of employees. The question with which service providers today must grapple is: How can we maintain our customer focus and ensure continued customer satisfaction while at the same time protecting the wellbeing of our team members?
The concept of “New Work” offers several suggestions for how to reconcile these seemingly competing needs. New Work encompasses a wealth of theories and methods relating to the organization of work, from self-organization to agility and modern leadership, to new work spaces, among many others. In this talk, we focus on our experience with implementing one such concept.
Agile Gurugram 2016 | Conference | What is Next ? | Priyank PathakAgileNetwork
The document discusses innovation and transformation in business. It notes that companies are currently in a "transformation age" of disruption. When interacting with companies, problems are found and it is concluded that something is wrong and quality can be better. The key aspects for leading through this time of change are noted as people, value, quality, and speed/flow. Reformers and change agents are needed to think strategically and imagine how values can be imbibed. Finally, it quotes Deming that while problems may seem different, the principles for improving quality are universal in nature.
This document discusses managing and motivating millennials in the workplace.

From employee experience to human experience: Putting the meaning back into work. One of the biggest challenges we identified this year is the need to improve what is often called the “employee experience”: Eighty-four percent of our survey respondents rated this issue important, and 28 percent rated it urgent. But the concept of employee experience falls short in that it fails to capture the need for meaning in work that people are looking for. We see an opportunity for employers to refresh and expand the concept of “employee experience” to address the “human experience” at work—building on an understanding of worker as- pirations to connect work back to the impact it has on not only the organization, but society as a whole.
The purpose of this research paper is to identify why Human Resources (HR) is a change agent in any organization to drive organizational excellence. HR practitioners, as change agents, are responsible for easing the impact of changes in their organization and to empower employees against the consequences of these inevitable changes. Sometimes, the change helps to produce a significant increase in performance excellence and the company can boost sales and production without major additional cost.
Several vital competencies that are reviewed in this paper include how HR practitioners are path creators amongst the path breakers of organizational culture, by being change drivers and business focused. HR practitioners who are unable to function as change agents will inevitably create a barrier against their becoming a well-integrated strategic partner. Therefore, the role of change agent also mediates the relationship between certain HR competencies and organizational performance. This involves monitoring employee engagement and keeping levels high, developing strategies to retain top performers, and continuing to provide value-added services to employees.

Successful Business transformation and the need for Change Leadership SkillsNMC Strategic Manager
1. Successful business transformation requires developing change leadership skills throughout an organization, not just at the top. It is important to understand change drivers, communicate vision effectively, build trust, and guide people through uncertainty.
2. Leading large-scale changes can be challenging due to the human factors involved and varying responses to change. The difficulty increases with the scope, complexity, and impact of the transformation.
3. Effective change leadership training should cover both change management hard skills and soft change leadership skills. It should also include applied exercises in addition to theoretical models to better prepare people for real-world transformation efforts.
1. The document describes a half-day masterclass event for senior executives on managing change.
2. The event will present proven practical change solutions and templates through case studies and research.
3. The masterclass will cover recurring themes of change leadership failure, the role of change leaders, and how to address human dynamics in change.

Flevy Author Spotlight: Our Interview with World-recognized Change Leader and...Flevy.com Best Practices
Original article from the Flevy business blog can be found here:
http://flevy.com/blog/our-interview-with-world-recognized-change-leader-and-flevy-author-ron-leeman/
In 2012, Ron Leeman was awarded the distinguished title of Change Leader by the World HRD Congress. He has led numerous global Change and Project Management initiatives. Ron has also published numerous frameworks on Flevy related to Change, Process, and Project Management . These frameworks are his own, developed through his extensive experience of over 40 years as a Change, Process, and Project professional.
We recently interviewed Mr. Leeman to better understand his approach to Change and how it differs from established Change Management frameworks, such as Prosci’s ADKAR and Kotter’s 8 Steps to Change.
How did you first get started in Change Management?
That’s a good “starter for 10.”
It was in 1974–goodness me that was a long time ago!–when I worked for the Ministry of Defence (MoD) in the UK. I attended various courses related to RM Currie’s Work Study, including Method Study, Work Study, Work Measurement, and Organisation & Methods, at what was then the Royal Military College of Science in Shrivenham, UK (now the Defence Academy of the United Kingdom). Following the successful completion of these courses, I went back to work for the MoD to apply my trade. I can hear you say “but that’s nothing to do with change?” Well, actually, it was because they all involved observing the way people went about their work, mapping their processes, critically examining them, and coming up with a better way of doing things. This then had to be sold to managers and their teams and to implement the new ways of working!
Following my time with the MoD, I went to work at Abbey National (which became Abbey and is now Banco Santander) first as a Business Analyst and then as a Productivity Consultant and Profit Improvement Consultant, but, again, all to do with “change.”
In 1996, I started work as an Independent Consultant and, if my memory serves me well, I first called myself a Change Manager when I was contracted to work for, what was then, the Bank of Scotland on a Core Banking Implementation, which had a far reaching impact on changing the way people did their job.
If you want to know more about me, take a look at my LinkedIn profile and I am happy to accept connection requests from you.
You have pioneered your own practical approach to Change Management. Can you describe it and explain how it differs from other established Change frameworks?

country. Along with state-owned banks, private banks play a critical role in the country's economy.
Managers in all types of banks now confront the same challenge: how to get the utmost output from
their employees. Therefore, Performance appraisal appears to be inevitable since it set the
standard for comparing actual performance to established objectives and recommending practical
solutions that help the organization achieve sustainable growth. Therefore, the purpose of this
research is to determine the effect of performance appraisal on employee motivation and retention.

Designing and Sustaining Large-Scale Value-Centered Agile Ecosystems (powered...Alexey Krivitsky
Is Agile dead? It depends on what you mean by 'Agile'. If you mean that the organizations are not getting the promised benefits because they were focusing too much on the team-level agile "ways of working" instead of systemic global improvements -- then we are in agreement. It is a misunderstanding of Agility that led us down a dead-end. At Org Topologies, we see bright sparks -- the signs of the 'second wave of Agile' as we call it. The emphasis is shifting towards both in-team and inter-team collaboration. Away from false dichotomies. Both: team autonomy and shared broad product ownership are required to sustain true result-oriented organizational agility. Org Topologies is a package offering a visual language plus thinking tools required to communicate org development direction and can be used to help design and then sustain org change aiming at higher organizational archetypes.
A presentation on mastering key management concepts across projects, products, programs, and portfolios. Whether you're an aspiring manager or looking to enhance your skills, this session will provide you with the knowledge and tools to succeed in various management roles. Learn about the distinct lifecycles, methodologies, and essential skillsets needed to thrive in today's dynamic business environment.

Editor's Notes
Thanks for the intro. It is nice to be on an Allegra stage one more time.
As you may be aware my journey has been from being a change management consultant to running my own business to now I am in a senior line management role with Energy Australia and all with no talent.
My current role has responsibility for business project delivery and organisational change management across the enterprise.
I would like to share some of the key take outs from my career to date. I had identified 4 of these originally hence the name Fab as per the Fab 4 from my hometown, but as with the Beatles line up there was actually a fifth and equally important addition!!
Moving from Managing Change to enabling Change-Ability and building an organisation that focuses on people processes, systems and an innovative, loosely coupled organisation that enables individuals to make a real difference. Constantly demonstrating the trust in people, removal of wasteful processes, and a focus on the higher purpose and nobility of delivering a fabulous service experience. Looking for others who share similar values and forming coalitions of the willing across all levels of the organisation.
Data driven decision making
Although I am not a detailed person I have worked hard to grow my analytical capability and drive positive outcomes based on objectively evaluating information. Of significant importance is strong commercial acumen and the ability to talk with authority when it comes to balance sheets and p&l matters.
Big Picture thinking
Being able to help people to navigate and understand the impact of change across the enterprise to enable leaders to think about the organisation as a ecosystem that needs to continuously evolve to survive. Demonstrating to others the benefits of Systems thinking and considering all elements of the ecosystem in the mix.
Skin in the game
Demonstrating that you are committed to the outcomes you are striving for. Run your own business – no bigger skin in the game. Playing the long game. Baggage handling – one of you gets on the plane.
What does this mean for the gig contractor v perm employee or consultant?
People – empathy. Chief Customer Officer. People not human in our titles. Customer Advocacy. How do we build teams? How do we gain trust? How do achieve on our own? We don’t. What do all organisations have in common? People. Individuals. Teams, Departments. Culture.
Teams
Customers
Employees
Other stakeholders
Pragmatic, Practical and Profit and Loss.
Be Pragmatic - Be prepared to change yourself to suit the situation.
Use methodologies and frameworks (adkar, agile, human design thinking) in conjunction with your own knowledge and experience. You are the difference and don’t be afraid to back yourself.
Always be practical and check other’s understanding of your thinking.
Being brave – sometimes this comes at a cost and there have been a number of times in my career where I have challenged the status quo, questioned an approach or shone an unwelcome light on toxic behaviours. Be true to your values and encourage others to do the same. Dig for the root cause of issues and identify a myriad of solutions for others to consider.
Finally and some might say most importantly, remember to keep things in perspective. No-one ever died as a result of a poor change management implementation.
