Implementing Change

Where Style, Readiness and Turbulence Come Together

During this discussion, Wendell Seaborne, Ph. D. leads each member of the group to discover how his or her personal leadership style, the organization’s readiness or reluctance to change, and the turbulent environment in which they operate can come together to allow for successfully implementing a change initiative. The direct reports of each participant will be asked to complete a short survey a few days before we meet, with individual results prepared for the discussion. Together we will find how we may each direct change with our own abilities and circumstances. You do not want tricks and gimmicks to make others think about you differently; you need to go below the surface and discover the hidden issues. To do that, you need good, solid advice that makes you different and gets different results.

Together we will discuss each group member’s predominant and secondary leadership styles among four choices and their company’s readiness to change and perceived turbulence in five areas:

• Culture
• Control
• Power
• Strategy
• Structure

Members will leave this session with a renewed knowledge of who he or she is, how he or she most often and most comfortably works in leading others, the state of his or her organization’s change readiness and turbulence, as well as how this knowledge, combined with his or her own purpose and passion, will allow them to successfully implement change in his or her organization. Members will learn to recognize the leadership styles of others, and how to gauge a company’s readiness to change.
