This piece on "fields and awareness" touches on a profound truth in organisational change. It's not just about frameworks, but the invisible relational context that truly shapes behaviour. This resonates deeply with my view that understanding underlying dynamics is key to unlocking agility. A remarkable read! https://deeperchange.substack.com/p/dc84-chapter-3-fields-and-awareness #OrganisationalChange #AgileLeadership

β€œThe true power of any strategy lies in the collective will of those who believe in it and see it through. As I have learned, full-on execution of a good strategy beats lacklustre execution of a great one every time.”

While it is nearly impossible for us to predict one specific future, we can confidently position for multiple probable futures.

Why Positioning Eats Predicting For Breakfast

In life as in strategic planning, we walk a fine line between making a balance of probability call about what is likely to happen and acting as though we can predict the future. This is a subject upon which I…

Unlike the neat conclusions found in many of the articles already produced, or as common sense would suggest, it is not so simple as 'just cut your losses'. Therefore, the question remains: when a line manager has a program where the costs are outweighing the benefits, why do they continue to persist with the program?

A Fallacy of Resourcing

Unlike the neat conclusions found in many of the articles already produced on the topic, or as *common sense* would suggest, it is not so simple as 'just cut your losses'. Therefore, the question remains: when a line manager or Board has a program where the costs are outweighing the benefits, why do they persist with the program?

I have long been at odds with much of the prevailing organisational culture when it comes to written documents. Call me out of touch with GenMe, but I like critical thinking. I enjoy a well written document. I think that actual research is necessary for a well-formed argument. I think major decisions should have a solid brief.

A Crisp Document and Messy Meeting

In passing off the thinking of others as our own, we fail to invoke the discipline essential in critical thinking. The most effective antidote to this is a crisp document, 'written with such clarity that it's like angels signing from up high', followed by a messy meeting in which people can robustly discuss the thinking presented.

When alignment and planning are conjoined, the process releases untapped potential. This is because a leader-manager is energising people by unlocking feelings of autonomy, competence, and relatedness. An approach that ultimately leads to greater wellness.

Aligning And Organising, It’s All About People

Planning and strategy have the same relationship as management and leadership. One is not a substitute for the other and each is most effective when complementing the other. Competent planning is a vital reality check on exuberant strategy, and sound strategy gives planning the direction to bring about change.

When Line Managers lack the hard skills of process design and implementation, the capacity to initiate changes in procedure, or the ability to write sound policy, and instead try to *lead* their team to success by hiring or co-opting other managers in the business to solve their problems, an engine of chaos is created.
