The People Who Built The House Can't Renovate It: Building the right team for change

Episode #46 // When you are brought into an organisation to deliver a turnaround, or when the CEO says it’s time to make major performance and culture change, it isn’t going to happen by expecting the same people to do things radically differently.

The trick is to blend the best of the existing capability and culture with new ways of thinking, behaving, and performing. What role do we, as leaders, play in that?

In this episode we are going to learn why the people who built the house (the incumbent leadership) absolutely cannot renovate it; why you need to set different standards of behaviour and performance.

We’ll talk about the white blood cells that are there to protect the organisation from change, and even cover off on how to spot the subversive elements that will do their utmost to covertly derail your efforts (with all the best intent, of course)!
