Here is my contribution:
Question your immune system
Transformation starts with questioning the own stabilizing factors. Our organizations developed an immune system to protect themselves from uncertainty, complexity, creativity and “disruptive change” – to deliver stability, quality, predictability, reliability, to be able to manage the input and control the output. Rules, Roles, Processes and Tools are part of this protection system. In order to change this system, those have to be questioned. Building transformation on strong values delivers the “glue” or the stability in times of disruption.
The constantly growing number of rules and constantly changing frame conditions are just slowing us down. The beauty of purpose is that it is holistic and sustainable and flexible. It allows us to do different things in different ways but still staying on a common path. Successful transformers have many questions – desperate to listen and learn. Step back from trying to manage people, quit thinking “my people are not ready or capable” – they all are. Maybe it’s you not building the trust or skills needed. Get out of your comfort zone and start YOUR personal learning journey. Become a role model for networking and connect to people outside of your company.
