Leading through The 6 Change Reactions
Why Change Stalls and What You Can Do About It (For leaders, managers, and supervisors)
When they announce changes, leaders tell their people that change is now a fact of life. But there is another fact of life: people respond to change in six ways. When leaders and managers ignore the 6 Change Reactions, they make change harder than it needs to be. But you and your leaders can create a change wave rather than struggle to push the change forward.
This humorous, fast paced session presents a breakthrough approach to change. You’ll understand The 6 Change Reactions and . . .
•Why change programs backfire
•Why trying to help people change is keeping them from changing
•How to map your team or organization on the 6 Change Reactions curve
•Why many change teams die a slow death after going in circles until the forward thinking people disengage
•How to set up a team for a quick start
•How to find and train change sales people who can convince the critical few that will move the change forward
•How to help the three negative reactors use their negativity to speed things up rather than bog them down
•How to deal with the one percent hard core resisters so they don’t ruin everything
You’ll never look at your people the same way again, and they will love you for it.
Leading Effective Hybrid/Remote Teams
You know the Great Resignation is a big deal, you have seen good people leave but you have been hoping it’s a Covid induced blip from 2021 that will go away soon. Instead, the Great Resignation is gathering steam--one in four employees plan to leave their job in 2022. If that is not bad enough, you wonder how you will find people. Sometimes candidates are worse than the people you have on a plan. On top of everything, it’s a challenge to prevent those disappointing employees from demotivating your strong producers. Nurturing talent and coaching have always made a difference, but new research shows they are critical across all generations. Your ability to retain employees depends on it, but what it looks like varies by generations.
This fast-paced presentation will explain where the workers have gone, how you can beat the Great Resignation as a talent nurturer and coach, with generational intelligence, and do it with a sense of humor.
Sticking Points
How to Get the 4 Generations Working Together in the 12 Places They Come Apart
They’re here. For the first time in history, you have four generations in your workplace and five generations as customers. Today you have to understand Traditionalists, Baby Boomers, Gen Xers, and Millennials just to write an email that won’t make someone angry. These generations think differently, vote differently, buy differently, and dress differently. Not understanding these differences creates conflicts and loses sales:
•What are the differences among the generations?
•What sticking points do the differences create for organizations, teams, or even families?
•How must marketing approaches change to reach the younger generations?
•What attracts and keeps younger employees?
•How will these differences complicate the mass exodus on the Boomers from the full time workforce over the next decade?
This popular session is full of laughter and insight. Come and see yourself, your customers, your people, and your future and walk away with practical ideas and plans for increasing your ability to get things done across the generations.
How to Time Prioritize When It Never Stops
It never stopped before COVID 19. But we worked an additional 1.5 hours per day last year, and many teams struggled to keep their camaraderie and workflows after going fully remote. When the work and demands never stop, it’s easy to dive into email and virtual meetings and never look up until late in the day. We may have worked without lunch or breaks but grow discouraged when the most important priorities still get pushed to tomorrow. Many of us find that evenings and weekends are the only time we can focus and avoid interruptions.
This presentation will help you get control back.
• Face your worst time management enemy and get realistic so you can work harder not smarter.
• Find your Time Squared Priorities: What times When (WxW) so that you can prioritize time and energy in a new way and find double results hours in every day.
• Fight the distractions that ruin your WxW time.
• Dig out from email and meetings so you can finally get the most important things done.
• Cut remote work hours for your team so each of you can balance relationships and find reenergization, even if you work from home another six months or never go back.
