Cracking the Growth Code
Growth is the leading priority among companies these days. But companies struggle to unleash growth from the inside out. Now there’s a solution. Dr. Bob Rosen, in collaboration with the Darden School of Business, has defined how to successfully unleash organic growth. After studying growth leaders in mature companies, they have identified the six lessons of growth – don’t look up at your bosses, look inside yourself; don’t wait for corporate to change the rules, play by a different game; growth is already there, you just need to reframe your perspective; make friends with your customer early on; make small bets fast and lead learning launches; lead your people with guns and roses. These are the secrets to catalyze growth inside your business.
Leading Change in a World of Uncertainty
Leadership used to be about creating certainty. Now its about leading uncertainty. This puts leaders and their companies in a permanent state of transformation. To succeed companies must master two essential elements of change – cognitive and emotional. Leading the cognitive side of change is all about clarifying the vision, strategy, and plans that focus and align people. Leading the emotional side of change involves living in the unknown, inspiring and challenging people to be uncomfortable, building commitment in a world of turbulence. Many companies have mastered the cognitive side of change, but have undervalued, misunderstood, or underinvested in the emotional side of change. The emotional side is the key to leading in a world of uncertainty.
