The legacy of command and control, KPIs and the rigidity of 20th century management thinkingWhy we shouldn’t be seduced by the fashion for throwing around words like empowerment, freedom and self responsibleWhat is a realistic goal for uber large or highly regulated organisations, in terms of self responsibilityHow to handle organisations driven by big personalities where leaders are ‘leading hard’ and the transition to distributed power feels large.Is it literally a case that the more the self responsibility the better? (Short answer = no)Why (despite the rush for experimentation) developing self responsibility requires a more gradual change and the case for ‘pre-paving’ for the changeHear Alan troubleshoot and me through a range real world examples of where self responsibility has got stuck

Roy Marriott has the deftest of touches when it comes to organisation change. Whatever challenges I’ve thrown at him over the last couple of years (and in this podcast), he seems to have the knack of reframing, rethinking and making oh so simple.


Join Roy and I to explore:
The two secrets Roy knows that no one else* knows (and by the way, there is a bonus Secret 2A!)Why the greatest impediment to organisational change is the idea that it can be achieved through an organisational change processWhat Appreciative Inquiry can teach us about generating change without generating friction and help us see organisations as a complex adaptive system in which change is naturally happening all the timeWhat is Agile organisational development .. and why it’s more effective and how you can sell to a board and get a  budget for?What is the Zone of Productive Change? Clue: it’s the overlap between what the org wants and what individuals want.Hear Roy coach me through a real change challenge I’m working on right now.(*Well some people do, but it’s quite cool to hear Roy describe them in his clever words)

We reference:
- Kotter’s model of change (and by the way, it’ll take 10 years)

Steve Stark and his company, Then Somehow, make tools for making work better… and he also makes the most heavenly cider in Sussex slash the world.


Email is not just ‘email’ but:
a major part of our working life we’ve not been given skills to handlewhich is influenced by social normsand taps into our addictive desire for information and connectionNo wonder it remains a problem that resists solution. Steve Stark’s workshop tackles the root cause of the email problem for each individual - and clears their inbox by the end of the day.


Full of hidden gems, in this podcast you will find out:
Why email is not just email but an activity that is influenced by and exerts invisible forces, unacknowledged beliefs and untested assumptions - and that uncovering these is the secret to unshackling ourselves from our emailHow our email problem is all our own fault… and why that’s BRILLIANT because it means we can do something about itThe mysterious outcomes that emerge when people tame their inbox: “I feel more engaged at work”How tackling email is a powerful and accessible lever to address bigger culture issues in a safe way and through experimenting.. including a blame culture or lack of clarity of ownership and decision makingAnd most importantly… what is the earliest socially acceptable time of day to drink cider

In this 45-minute conversation with Martyn Evans - Head of Product at Unboxed - you will hear:
Learning from Government Digital Service - the surprise success story from the heart of UK central governmentThe unintended consequences of trying to scale something emergentWhy we should try to understand our stakeholders to the same depth as we understand the users of the serviceHow to find a way to open up the conversation from when a stakeholder says ‘we know what we want’Why when people who are used to rules start using Agile, weird things can happenWhether it’s worth the cost and blood/sweat/tears of trying to shift to a more agile way of workingThe credible alternative to systematically rolling out Agile (and it’s very cool)Why Martyn no longer tolerates people saying ‘digital is a way to save money’. It’s not - it’s a way to make things better.
