Really? “I get so frustrated with consulting firms,” commented the CIO of a Wisconsin-based manufacturing company we interviewed a couple of years ago. “They always operate at 30,000 feet, but many of the problems we face—and I deal with daily—are down in the weeds.

When organizations get people and alignment right, their transformation efforts are more likely to succeed. Just 26% of organizational transformation initiatives succeed. There are many reasons why most transformation efforts fail including a lack of vision, strategy, and/or sense of urgency, declaring victory too soon, not anchoring the transformation within the culture, and not giving people the tools, resources, and autonomy necessary to implement the changes needed for transformation.

If I had to choose a catchphrase for the world of work today, it would be a mashup of Back To The Future and The Fast And The Furious. It's not hard to see that the changes of tomorrow are coming fast (in many cases, they're already here), disrupting everything we thought we knew. For both employers and employees, the pandemic was the catalytic moment that transformed where and how we work, but the trends were there beforehand.

Just because we're working with a distributed team doesn't mean we have to abandon time-tested tools and methods like whiteboarding. Digital look-alikes often cramp creativity and all but eliminate the humanity of shared interactions. Hardware solutions are also limiting and, of course, expensive and immobile. In an increasingly digital and remote-first world, it’s important for us to select tools and processes that allow us to mitigate if not eliminate the above problems.

Reform your team’s meeting habits to boost productivity and business impact as a CEO (a post-pandemic approach). If you work at a small business or growing company, you'll eventually face the problem of too many meetings. This is an increasingly common scenario since the pandemic (more on it later). Too many meetings will slowly weaken productivity by splintering everyone's work into small chunks and reducing their time for deep work.

When economic headwinds pick up, sales leaders are the first to sound the alarm — and chart a new course. Longer sales cycles, larger buying committees, increased price pressure, and smaller teams can quickly combine to reduce your margin for error and increase the urgency to find a solution. To thrive in a challenging environment, sales teams need a rock-solid grasp of the fundamentals and the biggest force-multipliers they can get their hands on.
