DESCRIPTION

Aimed for consultants, this program dispenses with some myths while providing insights into how performance happens, showing the leverage points to help companies adapt. Traditionally the consulting approach has been 'change management' as if dynamic change were controllable. With the need for speed companies are wondering what to do with a hierarchical structure that slows decision-making and blocks engagement. Luckily, it isn't about dismantling a hierarchy. It is about using it differently. This slide show demonstrates how performance really happens and how consultants can help managers adjust their role while paying attention to the underlying cultural assumptions.
