It's Not Complicated

Struggle to manage change?  Chris shares his process for moving hesitant teams. By the end of this podcast you'll know exactly how to boost adoption for change efforts. Here are some of the frameworks Chris introduces:  - People don't do what you SAY. They do what they BELIEVE. What is your process to surface and tap into their beliefs?  -Stop talking and start listening! What is your process to listen?  - Most of us aren't starting from "Why" the change is necessary, we start from "What" the change is or "How" it will be enacted. This is almost always the wrong starting point.  - Most leaders who start from "Why" are coming from the WRONG WHY. Learn how to create a compelling "Why."  Listen and let us know what "a-ha moments" you have.  Learn more at www.intentionalfutures.com  Follow Chris on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/christian-anibarro/

The most common approach organization's take when assessing culture is what I call "Assess, Analyze, and Action Plan."  This is an approach borrowed from old strategic planning methods that works well when you are implementing a knowable intervention (a complicated change).  But culture and community building are COMPLEX in nature, so we need a different approach to be effective.  In this episode Chris shares how to assess a culture using a "Design, Test, and Adjust" approach that is a better match for navigating complexity.  Learn more about Chris and Intentional Futures by visiting www.intentionalfutures.com.

The most significant challenges leaders face today are complex in nature. They are issues like doubling the growth of a business, transforming a culture, offering a world-beating consumer experience, navigating employee activism, or creating inspiring workplaces. The problem is that leaders try to solve these highly complex challenges as if they were merely complicated, and that’s a problem.  In this episode Chris will draw a simple and powerful distinction between causal or complicated challenges and complex ones... and he'll delve into how to approach them differently.  Learn more about Chris and Intentional Futures by visiting www.intentionalfutures.com.
