- Change has an end date. Not any more. Change has changed.
- It makes people anxious if they know organisational change is coming, so keep it secret. They already know. They’re already anxious. And no-one likes surprises.
- Carrot and stick change strategies work. For horses perhaps.
- 10yrs and a Degree is essential. With the exception of some technical roles, is it really?
- Asking about previous salary is ok. Price the role not the person, as this maintains unfair salary practices. See Westpac.
- Our people need ‘looking after’. They are not kids. We are not their parents.
- You need to have the answers before you communicate the message. It’ll be too late if you wait.
- Culture is set from the top. And ridiculed from the bottom?
- Clear outcomes are always required. Clear progress often adds more value more quickly.
- Leaders should have the answers. Welcome to ambiguity. No one has all the answers – time to become more resourceful.
- Failure is ok. Of course it isn’t. Unless we redefine what failure means.
- Technology is (most often not) the answer.
