    A good story line that explains key aspects of two of the most successful change frameworks without ever referring to them.
    One small but important difference or item that is not emphasized but nevertheless essential - the Sponsor needs to have the mandate for change = have the power to make decisions and thus is a member of the executive team.

    I think this is an excellent idea. I wish the organizations I've been a part of and the one now offered this training. Unfortunately, now I'm too old (born at the end of 80), but I see the reasoning. It's not to exclude older individuals but to offer the development we wish we had at that age, so they aren't stumbling in the dark and can encourage the next group.

    Scarcity is a marketing technique with results that can fizzle out fairly quickly.
    An intelligently run company would strategically place the 25% percent of the early adopters in positions of informal and/or formal influence, diffused throughout the whole company from where they can act as a ferment of change by employing strategies that are localised and specifically adapted to the respective area (either geographical or specialisation). One size doesn’t fit all.

      Culture is the collective personality of the organization. It is the mosaic of the patterns of behavior that are established by those who yield organizational power in terms of how they think, behave in public, how they make decisions, the policies they set and how they adhere to them (or not), what they say (and not) and how they say it, and what action they reward and recognize. Culture is the outcome of this collective pattern of behavior and if you don't like it, it can be changed by a leader who understands how it evolves and what personal habits the leadership team have to alter to arrive at a different, desired outcome.

    I really do love this concept of creating demand,. However, I think we must consider the equity implications of voluntary. Doing extra things for no extra compensation or benefits. This is often how we get a homogeneous table of innovations bc when the questions to volunteer is asked historically intentionally and traditionally marginalized people groups may want to volunteer but have so many other things to consider that take precedence that people groups who have long benefited from the privileges of whiteness might not even consider. Something to think about.

      I agree. I'm 57. When I turned 50 I realised that the first 50 years had mostly been an exercise in finding out what I don't know and needed to know more. At 50, my attitude switched from that slightly anxious one to a "don't care about what other's think about me" and I got much better at innovating and instilling change. I don't plan on retiring for another 30+ years because I've never had as much fun working as I have now.

      I think the exclusion of anyone before 1984, was just intended to inspire demand from these age group. People tend to want something if they feel like they are being left out, FOMO, fear of missing out.
      It sounds counter-inclusive but as long as the intention is to inspire demand and not to outright exclude, I think it's alright.

    I like the concept of working with those who are invested and committed to work. Organizational change is often tied to diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging. How do you ensure that there is equity in the room? Often people of color and underrepresented populations are often pulled in as volunteers. Coming from a historical population that has been exploited when it comes to labor, How do you create a space of equity if those that show up are the less compensated and often marginalized? Great Talk!!!

    So leadership is about getting people to do more work without more compensation. This is what is wrong in the USA. Work is not a hobby or servitude. Work is employment, a means to get an income to provide for food, shelter and whatever floats your boat. CEO's don't work for free, (in fact many lobby for pay that is far above what they could ever spend), why should employees.

      @chief_listening_officer 2 года назад +6

      As someone who would not have been eligible to apply I had the first knee-jerk response, then read your comment and thought about it for a bit. Two things spring to mind for me in why this was a smart selection.
      Firstly, I have no real idea what millennials think like and how they learn and experiment and change behaviour. I only know that it is different from the way my learning works. So designing a training program for people when I do not even really know how they learn would be a bit risky
      Secondly, I see this very much as the seed for the program. They selected the most passionate people for the task, and those went out and involved the others that were willing to help. There is nothing that suggested that the 50 volunteers were prevented from involving older people in the programs as they developed and deployed.
      Some of this also triggered by @TheAdamWest29 comment about age and innovation. We know and love that Simon works from purpose and passion outwards towards how and what. What I got from this is that he had an innovative way to find 50 people out of thousands who would be the initial momentum behind a much larger flywheel. He did not screen for creativity, in other words, but for willingness to show up without monetary or status rewards.
      It is interesting to note that only half of the people that got past the first initial screening took the next step, so this is a highly selective filtering process that this example describes.

    The single hump Gaussuan bell curve is NOT correct. It is nature's sign of something that is random, accidental, happenstance. Like the flipping of a coin. Or the number of apples on the trees in an orchard.
    The Correct curve was accidentally discovered by the late Howard Shenson. He spent a lifetime as consultant to small business owners. Gathering data on their success. It graphed numbers of companies (vertical Y axis) vs. Success as measured in dollars of annual revenue (horizontal X axis).
    Shenson accidentally discovered an un-expected DOUBLE HUMP curve. With sharp dip in the middle. The highest hump was on the left. Representing the majority of companies doing poorly at sales revenue. (High on Y quantity axis, low on X dollars axis.) A much shorter hump on the right side represented a small number of businesses making lots of money. (Low on the # Y axis, but Way out on the $ X axis.)
    So, what's indicated by the deep DIP in the Middle? It's that very few companies fall in the "no man's land" of just doing "okay" financially. It's polarized. You are either struggling with constant money shortage problems, or are sailing along smoothly.
    I then applied my 43 years of experience as a business consultant, to interpret this further. Into some sort of actionable lesson. Here's my conclusion:
    Firstly -- the distribution is Pareto-istic (80 / 20 Rule). Secondly -- You either DON'T Know how to run the Marketing / Sales side of enterprise (tall left hump), or you DO Know how to promote and sell (small right hump). That savvy know-how brings in steady cash flow, and is easily repeatable. Thus building to financial success.
    I coined a term: "Shenson Success Barrier". To describe some sort of invisible "wall" that stands in the middle, and separates the two humps. It keeps small-business owners "trapped" in the losing end. Forever small. They are never able to break through. Much like a house-fly beating itself against a glass window pane.
    That Russo-Shenson Barrier consists of 2 things. 1. Ignorance of how Management / Marketing / Sales works. 2. Fear, Low Self-esteem / Low Self-confidence. Both of these are purely mental/emotional. Which means the indestructable, impenetrable barrier CAN be made to just evaporate. Now you are free to migrate into Pareto-istically (16 to 1) greater success.

    I usually like Simon Sinek but I will disagree with him on the part in his example about no compensation. You are asking for people to give you their time, reaources and expertise to give you REAL results and benefits (even failure is a benefit since you learned) for FREE? That is not necessarily leadership. If that was the case, a lot of higher-ups should be paid a LOT less, since it's all about wanting to be a leader.
    I believe I am somewhere between the early adopters and early users. I like to try new things, but since this will require more time, knowledge and skill than doing the business as usual, I see nothing wrong with asking for proper compensation for what I bring. It's the literal definition of a job, and while I want people to be passionate about their work, they have bills to pay and we tell our society money is valuable, so pay up or I may refuse.
    Do not confuse lack of leadership with greed ot laziness. In this world where we keep saying we need to pay to attract talent and people have bills to pay, you have to accept that the financial side of it has to make sense as well.
