LEADING CHANGE IS TOUGH

CLARITY OF STRATEGY
“If you don’t know where you are going, you’ll end up someplace else.” Yogi Berra
3 types of values: 1. Brand Values 2. Corporate Values 3. Aspirational Values Right Values vs Real Values When does stating your values diminish your brand? Your values must be genuine
VALUES
@CampbellTCC www.changeandstrategy.com
CULTURE IS ESSENTIAL
@CampbellTCC www.changeandstrategy.com
84% of executives declare that: ‘Culture is critically important to business success’ Yet: <50% believe their companies do a good job of managing culture or that culture is a priority in their companies’ transformation initiatives.
“A company’s culture is how people behave when they think no-one is watching”
(Bob Diamond, CEO Barclays, weeks before resigning due to the Libor fixing scandal)
COURAGE
@CampbellTCC www.changeandstrategy.com
“I am personally convinced that one person can be a change catalyst, a ‘transformer’ in any situation, any organization. Such an individual is yeast that can leaven an entire loaf. It requires vision, initiative, patience, respect, persistence, courage and faith to be a transforming leader.” Stephen Covey
"It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change." Charles Darwin
