Recommendation

Most strategic change initiatives fail because leaders latch on to only one or two things they believe will make the difference. Consultant Michael Canic argues you have to do everything – planning, communicating, training, resourcing, measuring, creating the right conditions and forming the right teams – with gumption and dedication. He says you will fail if you don’t understand your employees’ perspective and inspire them to invest in the change. This no-nonsense guide provides senior leaders with the tools they need to execute bold, successful strategic change.

Take-Aways

  • Successful change initiatives require leaders’ full commitment and a consistent approach.
  • Put aside your ego and show vulnerability. To ensure consistency, weigh every word, act and decision.
  • Before you start a strategic change initiative, check and double-check your personal commitment.
