Change is hard. For organizations made up of disparate personalities, it’s even harder: especially when there’s a lack of buy-in from senior leadership. And in my experience as a change management and family business consultant, that’s all too often the case.
Change is necessary. It leads to growth — and not just on a “feel good” level. Studies show that companies that make transformative behavioral changes reap the benefits in their bottom line. Drucker Institute’s recent Management Top 250 report concluded that companies that excel in employee engagement and development excelled in financial strength and other measures of total effectiveness as well.
