    #88 No More Mr. Nice Guy

    As a change leader you can't always be nice. Don't be mean! but being nice and trying to please everyone will undermine the very change you're trying to make successful. There is a difference between being nice and being kind... and I get into what that looks like from a leadership perspective and why its so hard.

    #86 How to prepare your team for change

    Are you a leader who is planning a big change for your team, but doesn't know how to get your team ready for change? Often with big strategic changes or reorganization, we can't provide details before the change is announced. But if your team is completely in the dark, it makes responding to the change harder when it comes as a surprise. In this episode I talk about a recent example of how a leader prepared a team for change using 3 key tools. But here's the inside scoop -- I can tell you why they worked, and how to apply them.

    #84 Navigating Emotions

    Emotional responses are a fact of change -- but why do they happen? Context is really important and how people have to show up inside organizations, we are rarely in control of our organizational destiny and it makes change feel like it is happening to us instead of being in charge of it. This episode covers the 4 fear responses and what they look like inside the organizational environment and why we rarely see anger expressed openly. Change curves are an important part of the research and I introduce another way to look at this collectively to help indicate the individual and group emotional state. Lastly, facing the negative responses to change is not something we can avoid. I walk you though why leaning into the negative responses is essential to getting the results you desire.

    #82 Sometimes, you don't need a training plan

    Traditional Change Management approaches focus on two key things... communications and training. But what if your change isn't a giant implementation requiring thousands of people to attend training sessions? What if your change is simpler than that? Well, this might get change traditionalists a little upset, but sometimes you don't need a training plan at all! In this podcast I go over how to figure out if your change needs a training plan or not, and what tools and approaches exist to create a blended communications and training approach that meets the needs of various programs large and small, and how to tailor your approach to find the best fit for your program.

    #81 Get into the groove

    Going "back to school" can mean a whole bunch of different things, but certainly for those of us who have school-aged children, and for those of us who work as educators, we're experiencing a massive shift from "summer schedule" to the "regular schedule". For those of you who are not currently in the back to school routine, the shift certainly has a ripple effect as many of us experience a transition back to routine after Labour Day. But the question is: even though we do this every year, why does it seem so hard? Shouldn't it be a lot easier? Like flipping a switch? I get into why in this episode, and how our very human expectations get in the way of experiencing change smoothly, and why it takes a bit to get into the groove.
