This episode surfaces several important issues about how we as consultants and coaches can best support the people tasked with making change. It is critical to consciously shape our role and style so that we meet the needs of our clients in the best way possible. Too often, consultants and coaches have been trained in a specific approach that becomes “one size fits all.” In the context of major change, that doesn’t always work! It is our job to help our clients see what they don’t see, in ways that support them to be successful.

Come hear about the various choices we have about our roles — and styles of executing them — so we can best meet the needs of our change clients, be they leaders, project managers, or change project teams. Come learn a powerful technique for doing so. Expanding your ability to see what is needed, adjust your approach and provide invaluable guidance can produce a breakthrough for you!

Best of Ask Dr. Change - Season 1.

Do your too-busy leaders miss seeing important information that they know they need to make? Many leaders miss, ignore or side-step information that serves as a wake-up call… and instead press the snooze button until things get painful.

In today's episode, I answer the question: "What triggered the major changes you are leading, and how do we get leaders to pay attention to it earlier?"

We’ll explore what constitutes a wake-up call, how to illuminate the earliest indications that a change is needed, and the importance of engaging leaders in this crucial first step toward making their most critical changes.

This episode is a must-listen if you want your leaders to be aware and listening for the changes needed in your organization.
