Suit up your leaders to be everyday change heroes
If there’s one thing we need to get comfortable with in today’s world, it’s change. We’re on a high-speed train to the future and it’s showing no signs of slowing down or stopping. Having the skills to adapt to change – and even thrive through it – is critical to your organization’s success and to keeping your people at their best.
Change can be exhausting. Your employees need support and compassion from leaders who know how to make change meaningful.
The stats are compelling. When leaders understand what’s changing, why it’s changing, and can articulate how they and their people contribute to successful change, the likelihood of achieving their goals is:
4.5x
more when leaders are trusted sources of communication
4.3x
more when leaders communicate transparently about what’s happening
And, their people are
65%
less likely to feel burned out by change*
A superhero-sized toolbox
Superheroes are capable of incredible things, and helping your leaders find their respective capes is easier than you might think! With the right toolbox, at your leaders’ disposal, it can make communicating about and influencing change simpler and more effective.
Here are just a few tools you should consider:
- Reference tools to help them lead (e.g., a playbook with simple key messages)
- Leadership sessions (e.g., how to keep their people informed to make the change meaningful)
- Feedback loops (e.g., themes about what leaders and their people are hearing to evolve key messages and go-forward strategies)
Change is uncomfortable. But leaders have the power to make it better. They have the power to be everyday change heroes. When you unlock their potential, it can make a world of difference to your organizational outcomes and the well-being of your people.
