As an organizational system grows complex, it hardens through processes, beliefs, mindsets, legacy decisions and culture. However, most change in complex organizations is implemented with a short-term focus on results. Let’s do this differently and we get that. This plug and play approach to change may lend short-term results but organization pays the cost elsewhere in form of unsustainability of new practices, other impacts, employee morale etc.

When economic headwinds pick up, sales leaders are the first to sound the alarm — and chart a new course. Longer sales cycles, larger buying committees, increased price pressure, and smaller teams can quickly combine to reduce your margin for error and increase the urgency to find a solution. To thrive in a challenging environment, sales teams need a rock-solid grasp of the fundamentals and the biggest force-multipliers they can get their hands on.

Most HR leadership philosophies are grounded in two completely faulty assumptions — “change is hard” and “engagement drives results.” Those beliefs have inspired expensive attempts to keep change from being disruptive to employees. What these engagement programs actually do is create and reinforce feelings of victim-hood and leave employees unprepared to adapt to real changes that are necessary for the health and profitability of their enterprises.
