I’ve been thinking about what it takes to move from identifying problems in the workplace…long entrenched ones…to solving them and how difficult that can be for so many organizations. Sure, it’s easy to say things need to change, but often only a new face replaces the ‘source’ of the problems.
New faces cannot solve problems alone however. There must be organizational commitment to improve and that frequently involves change on a meaningful scale.
Let’s be honest, changes around the periphery are not real improvements…they are just easy adjustments…and easy does not get the job done.
From my perspective there are three clear actions required if meaningful problem-solving (read here —> lasting change) is to occur:
1. Crystal clear identification of the problem, process or person
2. A specific set of actions that will immediately begin to move the needle
3. A commitment to sustain the change even when it starts to feel uncomfortable
No clarity?
No commitment?
No results.
It’s that simple.
What do you think?
Thank you for being here.
