Is your team thriving in a workplace facing relentless and rapid change?
Whether it’s diminished sales, increased or disruptive competition, or corporate restructuring, change is a natural part of doing business in today’s high-speed, information-overload, instant-response environment.
But inherent in human nature is resistance to change―a basic emotional response that is well-documented by neuroscience. In this groundbreaking guide, ‘Power Your Tribe: Create Resilient Teams in Turbulent Times’, released in January 2018, top leadership consultant and employee engagement expert Christine Comaford shows you how to bring your tribe together to tackle any challenge head-on.
Using her simple, proven strategies, you’ll be able to:
• Meet the demands of changing markets, customers, and competitors,
• Adapt to new management, restructuring, and other corporate shakeups,
• Spark innovation and teamwork in the workplace―and keep it burning, and
• Empower your people to embrace change as a new opportunity for growth and development.
The human brain is wired to seek reward and avoid pain and conflict - and change is associated with fear of an unknown future.
‘Power Your Tribe’, delves deeply into the emotional undertow that often accompanies growth and change, so leaders can learn how to remove change resistance.
Emotional agility is about choosing how one wants to feel, and helping others choose how they feel.
With the right tools and the right training, this form of agility can be built into the muscle memory of any business, small or large.
In a world of rapid and relentless change, leaders need simple and powerful ways to connect with their teams across geographies, time zones, and cultures.
"Navigating change is hard, and people often get emotionally hijacked in the process," says Comaford. "Leaders need potent, easy to learn, highly effective brain-based tools to navigate the emotions connected with growth and change - and get and keep their teams on track."
Client case studies illustrate how to apply a specific mix of tools in a variety of scenarios, such as leadership abusing power, competitors crushing sales, merger and acquisition stresses, and family business and board dysfunction. The book includes a diagnostic chart that summarises all 28 tools, showing how and when to deploy them.
POWER YOUR TRIBE is based on the STI methodology created over the past 30-plus years of helping leaders get the results they want in organizations ranging from startups through Fortune 10 multinationals. The blend of mapping diverse neuroscience research to practical tools and techniques has generated the many results clients rave about.
