What’s your best wisdom?
You know who is way, way, WAY smarter than me?
Us.
Change Signal is a burgeoning group of transformational leaders who are seeking (and finding) modern change mastery.
So I’d be an idiot not to regularly be asking you all, what do you know and love about this discipline?
What are you seeking out and learning as modern change mastery?
So let me know.
What are your favourite frameworks, books, thought leaders, podcasts, and miscellaneous sources of wisdom that fuel and inform the work that you’re doing?
Shoot me an email and tell me. I read every note I get.
Pod guest ideas? One thing I’m definitely curious about is who else you think I should have on the pod. If you’ve got a thought on that, let me know. (And if you can make the introduction, let me know that too!)
Three recommendations from me
Here are three resources I’ve found resonant lately.
They’ve created a fiercely wonderful community about and for self-managed organizations. The newsletter is punchy, practical, and also philosophical. A great regular read. Also, Pim De Morree was one of the first guests on the pod. You might enjoy that episode.
Stephen R. Covey, The 8th Habit
I’m as surprised as you, perhaps, that I’m recommending it. I was a bit dismissive of it when it came out (7 Habits … but wait, there’s more! Buy my book!) But my coach reminded me of it, and in particular, a model that shows the choices people have. It’s a model that moves through six stages, including Malicious Obedience (oh, I know this one well!), Cheerful Cooperation, and Creative Excitement. It’s on p.22 of my edition, and when I think about how to do change with people, not to people, this framework is helpful.
At Work with The Ready podcast
Rodney Evans and Sam Spurlin are wonderful hosts, and this is “let’s do real talk” about what works in getting work done. I’ve been a guest on the pod myself, and Rodney’s been on Change Signal (“Go find the gnarliest problem, and start there” <= love her insight!)
