Here are my take aways: Ownership & Accountability: It goes beyond mere participation; it involves a deep sense of commitment and dedication. Accountability is built on clear commitments and the fulfillment of those commitments. Organizations should foster a culture of commitment making and keeping, where individuals are held accountable for their promises. The focus should be on learning from missed commitments and improving future outcomes rather than placing blame or punishment.Empowerment: Traditional notions of empowerment can be disempowering as they imply that power is granted by someone else. True empowerment comes from within and should be cultivated through a self-management mindset. Leaders should empower their team members by providing them with the power to learn, acquire resources, build relationships, and collaborate effectively.Continuous improvement is at the heart of self-management and organizational success.Talent with Self-Management skill set: When hiring, look for individuals who demonstrate a self-management mindset and a willingness to take ownership. Assess candidates' self-awareness, collaboration skills, and ability to work autonomously. Seek individuals who are adaptable, embrace change, and are motivated by personal growth and the success of the organization.Decision Making: Distribute decision-making authority to individuals closest to the action. And foster a culture where decisions are made based on expertise and input from those affected by the decision. Embrace decision rights and empower individuals to make decisions within their areas of responsibility.Connect with us: Doug on Linkedin Me, Helena, on Linkedin or Instagram, or visit my website for more inspiring change stories----------------------------------------------Hey fellow change maker,I hope you enjoyed our conversation.

Key Takeaways::Pursue Your North Star: Gain the confidence to pursue your dreams by aligning your decisions with your passions and surrounding yourself with supportive people who encourage growth. Embrace failures as stepping stones to success and persevere until you achieve your goals, both personally and professionally.Embrace Risk: Overcome risk aversion by reframing its perception and understanding that calculated risks are vital for growth. Allocate a portion of your efforts (e.g., 10%) in business and in your personal life to pursue ambitious, innovative endeavors while safeguarding core operations. There is no success without failure. No failure means mediocrity.De-Risk Ventures With Customer-Centricity: Re-risk by speeding up the time it takes to test, fail, learn and try again. Prioritize customer feedback over pride and predetermined plans. Embracing this mindset fosters disruptive innovation and separates market leaders from the rest.Connect with us: Philipp on Linkedin and go follow him on his youtube channelMe, Helena, on Linkedin or Instagram, or visit my website for more inspiring change stories----------------------------------------------Hey fellow transformation enthusiast,I hope you enjoyed our conversation.

Key Insights We Touch Upon In This Conversation:1. SaaS companies need sales skills along the entire customer journey to manage digital touch points on social media to building long lasting relationships to retain customers. Susan shares how Siemens DI SW built a sales hub to manage all touch points.2. Change happens when leaders understand what market challenges sales faces. Susan built connections and dialogue between the sales organization and leadership with reverse mentoring. This helped leadership understand and support the sales hub's evolution by addressing frontline workers' real challenges instead of just creating awareness presentations around their meta-level WHY.3. Transforming a traditional sales organization into a sales hub that covers the customer journey requires collaboration among the different sales roles, which requires a focus on designing team culture, first. 4. The future of sales lies in automation. And the question becomes: Can you shift sales people out of a fear of job loss and enroll them into a future where they can seize more opportunities as automation frees up their schedules?Connect with us: Susan on LinkedinMe, Helena, on Linkedin or Instagram , or visit my website for more inspiring change stories----------------------------------------------Hey fellow transformation enthusiast,I hope you enjoyed our conversation.

I share my journey towards understanding my purpose and creating from a place of authenticity. I also talk about my partner's approach to creation as an artist and what I’m learning from him about the process of creating from a place of uniqueness without getting in our own way, and finding peace in uncertainty. Key aspects I talk about:Embracing Change: I share my intense six-month journey, from leaving her corporate job to embracing the entrepreneurial world. She discusses the higher stakes, faster pace, and overwhelming nature of this shift, while also acknowledging the opportunities it brings.The Artistic Influence: My partner, an artist, becomes an essential source of inspiration. I admire his ability to let creativity emerge without forcing it, leading me to question how this concept applies to my own business world. I explore the power of getting out of my own way and allowing my true self to shine.The Sweet Spot: I’ve always strived to find the sweet spot where mu skills, strengths, and passions intersect to make a meaningful impact. I share my experiences interviewing corporate leaders and I reflect on the importance of aligning personal purpose with the organization's mission.Peeling Back Layers: I emphasize the significance of introspection and self-discovery. And I delve into the process of shedding limiting beliefs, understanding strengths, and recognizing areas for personal growth. By following my heart and stepping into the unknown, I learn to challenge societal expectations and embrace my true self.Embracing Uncertainty: I discovers the power of embracing uncertainty and surrendering control. I realize that despite my best efforts, I cannot control every aspect of my entrepreneurial journey. By reframing uncertainty as an adventure rather than a challenge, I learn to navigate ambiguity with grace and resilience.

Downsizing office space, repurposing the space, or implementing hybrid work concept are opportunities to improve collaboration. I led the change management for developing and executing the Hybrid Work strategy and concept at Siemens Smart Infrastructure's. Our team was to merge the global and European headquarters, downsize and repurpose the office space. Seeing this as an opportunity to improve how we collaborated, I needed to include the voice of the employees and apply an agile, human-centric approach to change management to co-create the office space vision and solution, increase change adoption, and motivate people to go back to work. Here's why change management is critical to success and here's what to focus on:Make change management part of your hybrid work strategy and project team. The change team will act as a sounding board between employees and leadership, grow a change community, communicate, and create the change story to inspire people and help move people into actionDevelop an agile structure that allows for co-creation of the office space vision, solution, and change storyEmployee engagement requires regular communication on the change progress but also continuous communication on the vision. Use storytelling to inspire people on the visionChange ambassadors enable bottom-up change, but focus on enabling the frozen middle, management/team leads also. These questions may help:Are there team leads that can be recruited as change ambassadors? What will you do about the other team leads?What training and toolkits do team leads require to break down the change with teams, "make the change actionable" ?Teams will realize they have knowledge gaps to improve how they collaborate in a hybrid setting with, e.g. digital tools, or creative problem solving techniques. How are you capturing the knowledge gaps?Up-skilling requires more investigation, time and resources. Use the insight you gain from implementing hybrid work strategies to strategies on up-skilling your employees.When done right, hybrid work concepts / back to office strategies are opportunities to foster collaboration. But they're just the beginning. Fostering more collaborative work environments is a learning journey. Incorporating a change management team with time and resources will help you lay the right foundation.

Leaders ask the wrong questions when they digitize: “How can we dissolve silos to be more innovative? Build a “trust culture” for more ownership? How can we be agile, faster, and more competitive?” Leaders tackle symptoms instead of identifying root causes that hinder speed, innovation, collaboration, and growth.Key insight from the conversation on where our thinking goes wrong when we don’t understand:The market problem: What’s changed? What new market problem is the organization confronted with? The type of problem: Do we face a complicated problem? Or a complex problem?The structure to solve the problem: If it’s a complicated problem, process and knowledge will solve it. If it’s a complex problem then group intelligence and smart experimentation is required, which can be attained through agile, scrum, and/or self-organized teams. Answer these questions to empower your teams by providing the right structure.

Experiences and stories I talk about:LA attracts people who are willing to put themselves out there and try on a new skin: many people here have skin in the game, they go out and just try, they learn to pivot, and learn how not to crack under pressureDriven by a go getter mentality and seeing the need to fail forward: people allow themselves to just start and figure it out as they goHaving skin in the game produces anxiety: you’re always thinking "What’s next?" It’s easy to not relax into the now, because there is no finish line, no certainty. Progress requires work and repetition and a strong network of people that will help you work towards progress, success and collaboration. People in L.A. really rely on that network, it's all about who you know, and being like-able to do business with. Detach to reduce stress: the highs are high, the lows are low. Surrendering and acknowledging that part of the process is to let go of this feeling that we are in control of everything, and to trust that the right thing will happen and come our way, eventually.----------------------------------------------Connect with me: Linkedin or Instagram , or visit my website for more inspiring change stories----------------------------------------------Hey fellow change enthusiast,I hope you enjoyed this episode.

My Key Take Aways from this conversation:Saboteurs have many origins: our childhood, upbringing, and what people tell us. Working through them can help to build character and resilienceBuild confidence and trust in yourself to reduce the effects of external sabotage. Remember small successes and give yourself credit for them. Spot a saboteur by paying attention to when you use “should” or pay attention to when you feel regret or shame. Swap your “shoulds” with “coulds”Educate yourself and take the saboteur test by Chizard Chamine: https://www.positiveintelligence.com/saboteurs/ or read his book on positive intelligence / saboteurs: https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/13221308-positive-intelligence---------------------------Connect with us: Margo on Linkedin and Irina on LinkedinMe, Helena, on Linkedin or Instagram , or visit my website for more inspiring change stories----------------------------------------------Hey fellow change enthusiast,I hope you enjoyed our conversation.

Creativity is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. Here's how to get a good sweat in and love the process:Disruptive innovation requires us to value and focus on “how” (team & problem solving), less on “what” (product)Spend digging into a problem and get comfortable in that space by letting go of perfectionism, and being ok with the discomfort that arisesIdeas arise from being in stand-by: Slow down, and use play and relaxation so your subconscious mind can push ideas into your consciousness Seek environments where you aren’t the expert, be curious and open, accept people who are different to you, this will heighten your/team’s creativityDon't wait for a perfect plan, scenario, environment, or reason to do / create.

This episode’s invites you to reflect on:What’s your intention when you face conflict and need to negotiate? Try to set the intention to listen to find similarities, and use the differences to expand and build bridges between partiesDo you have a common purpose that drives the agenda? Or is your own agenda running the show and blocking your ability to learn or find consensus?Get curious about people's interests, their backgrounds, their experiences, and ask yourself, how can we pursue a common purpose that contributes towards an outcome that’s better for the greater good of society/this team and not just benefiting me/them?What’s your approach to diffuse conflict? Can you ask for help? What about trying to ask the other person you’re in conflict with for help to resolve the problem? Vulnerability is a powerful tool that disarms people during conflictHow do you invite others to embrace conflict? Are you as a leader publicly rewarding people that oppose your opinion?Throughout the episode we refer to Friedrich Glasl's Nine-Stage Model Of Conflict Escalation.Connect with us: Franz on Linkedin Me, Helena, on Linkedin or Instagram , or visit my website for more inspiring change stories----------------------------------------------Hey fellow change enthusiast,I hope you enjoyed our conversation.

How are we enabling people and the business to stay relevant and resilient during transformation and change, and to succeed? Empowerment leadership and culture are tools to ensure resiliency, relevancy—success. But, developing empowerment culture requires a shift in mindset: "Your success is my success." Ma Qing elaborates on this. Here are my key take aways:Ensuring the success of others ensures my successI work to stay in touch with the people I work with, so that I know what matters to them. The feeling of togetherness is powerful, it brings us closers, and allows us to succeed together.Empowerment is about empowering every person in the ecosystem, not just my employeesI work on becoming the best version of myself, so that I do a better job at empowering othersSelf-development means I am open to learn, and I use self-compassion to stay motivated when my confidence takes a hit from making mistakesI hope you enjoy!Connect with us: Ma Qing on Linkedin Me on Linkedin , Instagram , or visit my website for more inspiring stories.----------------------------------------------Hey fellow leadership enthusiast,I hope you enjoyed our conversation.

"It's not about what we have, it's about what we do" Barbara says. She understands how creating a culture of empowerment to advance electrification, automation, digitalization and sustainability requires her to become the best version of herself, first. It depends on how you view your role as a leader and that of your people–not as mere resources, but as individuals who can grow.Here are my top take aways on personal growth to foster the best version of ourselves:Know your strengths and that of your team–learn to rely on and trust your experts. You have to give trust to build it.Uncover your subconscious biases to enable inclusiveness in diverse teams. You want people to feel like they belong, feel comfortable speaking up, and bring their full selves to work.Keep your ego in check: Where are you engaging in someone’s process or someone’s business? Where are you undermining someone’s ownership?I hope you enjoy!Connect with us: Barbara on Linkedin Me, Helena, on Linkedin or Instagram , or visit my website for more inspiring change stories----------------------------------------------Hey fellow change enthusiast,I hope you enjoyed our conversation.

Insights from philip on following your purpose and creating your future:Birds fly in the sky, fish swim in the sea: What feels natural to you? What are you supposed to be doing?1 Make life your own: What are you here to do? Answering these questions will help you kick-start your journey to finding your purpose (or your Dharma):What do you enjoy doing? What would you do for free?Are you good at it? What does it take to master your craft?Who will benefit from this? How can you do this sustainably?Follow your intuition and synchronicities2 Eager to transform: A journey of emancipation and transformation awaits you, where you question socialization, detach from key figures and attain a new level of consciousness that allows you to find your purpose and create a meaningful life. 2 Find the courage, and be ready for rejection: The odds are stacked against you when you do things differently, it can be scary. Find the courage, do it anyway, and get ready to face failure, setbacks, and rejection. 3 Speak about the challenges: The journey of self-discovery is tough, but rewarding as you learn so much. Dealing with failure, setbacks and rejection is easier if you open up and share your struggles; it allows you to connect with others who may experience the same. We musn't journey alone. 4 Enable others: Leaders in any field have the most important jobs: help people connect to their purpose. They can do so by focusing on what's there and already works, and amplifying that by creating further fields of purpose and permission.

How does cybersecurity help leaders to take more risk? How do you unite industry players to drive digitalization in an industry and increase digital adoption? And how do you build a culture that allows each individual to unfold and contribute to innovation?Natalia speaks on overcoming the fear of implementing digital products and services, how to increase adoption by building trust, and the inner work required to become an inclusive, industry leader. My Key take-aways and Learnings from Natalia:1 Cybersecurity is complex and not easy to grasp: Educate your stakeholders by stepping into their shoes—ask more questions and listen—to understand their reality and to close the knowledge gap. 2 Create a catchy, compelling value proposition to connect your stakeholder’s reality with cybersecurity or any digital service or solution and use storytelling to drive your message home. 3 Think collaboration over competition: There’s no time to reinvent the wheel—partner up and collaborate! Focus on your strengths as you unite players to contribute under a common goal, and focus on small wins to spur momentum .4 Build a culture of belonging for equity, social justice, and innovation: The change starts within yourself. Inclusive leaders enhance satisfaction, and collaboration. This requires that we connect with our emotions, share our feelings, be honest to ourselves on our shortcomings, yet focus energy to build our strengths, and build trusting relationships with the people we work with through honest, respectful feedback.Connect with us: Natalia on Linkedin Me, Helena, on Linkedin or Instagram , or visit my website for more inspiring change stories----------------------------------------------Hey fellow change enthusiast,I hope you enjoyed our conversation.

Digitizing companies struggle with finding the right solution for customer ecosystems or socio economic challenges. Why is it so hard? Because we are trying to reduce complexity alone and in silos. We need bridges across silos to collaborate and find ways break down complexity to serve ecosystems and create interrelated solutions and services. Insight from Julia on Leveraging Silos And Build Bridges1 Learn to Leverage Silos: We need silos, but we also need to build bridges across silos to leverage the expertise inside silos2 Which Silo is right? All views are right. The challenge is to get silos to focus on the customer's ecosystem and to guide conversation and value creation along the customer journey.3 Closing the Skill-Gap to Work Across Silos: We often work in silos, because we don't know there are smarter ways to collaborate. And hiring one Design Thinker with human-centric problem-solving skills won't change the culture alone.4 Resiliency: Are you able to ask yourself: Have I chosen the right approach? Will a silo approach suffice to solve this customer's problem? Putting our egos aside, reflecting and challenging ourselves and our intentions is key to working across silos.

Why do we vicitimize during change? Many learned they have little control over change, as it happens for the betterment of the firm's economic value. How we invite people to change has to be rethought if we want them to participate and own the change.Insight from The Storytellers on Inspiring Change Ownership with Story:1 Change Cynicism: Many don't believe the company will actually change. Storytelling helps convince people of the changes.2 Stories Connect Change to People's Reality: Stories provide insight on the journey and they help people understand how the change connects to their job. 3 Participation in Change: We participate in the story when we relate with the story's protagonist and their journey of overcoming the change-challenges. This participatory experience teaches us learn how to own the change. 4 Enabling Middle Management for Change: Managers receive strategy slides and a high-level story, but they don't embrace it, because they lack the time to make it relevant to their teams. Managers must be equipped with tools to quickly break down the story for their teams.5 How Story Works Top-Down: Leaders connect with people when they embody the story, let go of polished speeches, and speak from the heart. This requires a strongly aligned leadership team with consensus on how to overcome the hardship the company will face for consistency and conviction in messaging.

"I create my future, because I’m willing to learn and take risks" is the mindset of thriving employees. At Baloise, leaders struggled to inspire employees to adopt this mindset. The insurance company faced a dying clientele and desperately needed employees to take risk to acquire younger, high-risk customers. Beat shares how to change the culture to adopt a new growth strategy.Key Take Aways:#1 Identify change roadblocks: For people to shift into “I can create my future” mentality requires cultivating an understanding of where the company stands and addressing the underlying uncertainty. #2 Mobilize people for change: Change requires a bottom-up and top-down approach. The company's strongest influencers are inside the organization, tap into them to develop the change narrative to take people on a journey and move them past uncertainty. #3 Use story to bring strategy to life and inspire change: Fact-based presentations don't achieve buy-in, stories will, as they inspire people to interact with the strategy and change narrative. #4 Inspiring leaders are relatable: Sharing a personal experiences on overcoming obstacles related to the change allows leaders to break the glass ceiling between the ivory tower and the people. ----Connect with Beat on Linkedin: Me, Helena, on Linkedin or Instagram , or visit my website for more inspiring change stories----Dear fellow change enthusiast,I hope you enjoyed our conversation.
