Why transformational change goes wrong

From time to time companies need to make big changes to stay ahead of their game. It can be a risk – changing the way you do things – but not as risky as preserving the status quo, allowing nimble competitors to grab your market share. The problem is, these transformations often go badly wrong, creating poor results and demotivating staff. In this edition of the Executive Central Podcast Rob Balmer takes Phil Dobbie through three reasons why transformational change fails, and what to do to avoid that failure.

Owning Your Own Career

Have you planned your career, or have you just taken the easy path that was laid about before you? In this edition of the Executive Central Podcast, Rob Balmer talks to Phil Dobbie about the importance of owning your own career. That means understanding your key strengths, that make up your personal brand. You might know those strengths, but does everyone else appreciate them? If not, you could miss out on opportunities. And are you using your unique attributes to determine what path you take? In other words, do you own your own career?

Selling – Everyone In Your Organisation Should Be Doing It

There’s nothing less productive than a salesperson without any leads. They resort to inefficient cold calling.

In this edition of the Executive Central podcast Rob Balmers talks to Phil Dobbie about how to generate new business throughout your company. The obstacle, he suggests, is overcoming peoples aversion to selling.

Leaders embracing the power of vulnerability

We tend to assume that leaders need to come from a position of strength. After all, doesn’t their team want to feel reassured that someone is in charge with a vision and a clear understanding of what to do next? In this podcast, Rob Balmer suggests leaders need to be prepared to be a little vulnerable because only then will they open the workplace discussion to alternative approaches. Phil Dobbie asks him, ‘isn’t this all a bit touchy feely?’

Leaders and Managers as Coaches

Lots of managers and leaders spend their time working on specific tasks, rather than coaching their staff. They work hard to avoid being with the people who work for them. Rob Balmer describes it as a destructive work environment, where staff quickly become disillusioned. It’s also, of course, hugely inefficient. In this podcast he talks to Phil Dobbie about how to turn around your leadership style, so you spend more time managing people and the work they do, rather than doing the work yourself.

Influencing Change

In the last podcast Phil Dobbie spoke to Executive Central’s Rob Balmer about how leaders need to be constantly driving change in an organisation. Nothing stands still in the corporate world. In this episode, Rob explains how change can never be achieved without influencing the whole team to embrace the change. You need to consider the Stakeholder Value equation when selling the reasons for change.

Leading and Managing Change

We’ve been looking at managing a performance culture in recent episodes of the Executive Central podcast. To move to a performance culture you, inevitably, must change how things are done. In this episode, Phil Dobbie asks Executive Central’s Rob Balmer about how, as a leader, you drive the change process, bringing people along and ensuring you maximise the outcome. Rob explains a process built around three crucial stages, each with their own leadership challenges.
