Still reveling in the energy from NHRMA - Northwest Human Resource Management Association last week! π₯³
I had the chance to speak twice:
ππΌ The Team Alignment Playbook: 3 Strategies to Turn Siloed Teams into Collaborative Powerhouses
ππΌ Culture Isnβt a Perk. Itβs a Strategy. with Wendy McCauley Brand and Devin C. Hughes
So many great conversations and connections sparked from those two sessions.
And consistently I heard some version of:
"We've got some challenges inside our organization..."
Silos. Avoided conversations. Misalignment. Conflict. Lack of accountability. Leadership infighting.
Followed by:
"But nothing is on fire. Yet. So there's little urgency from leadership to do anything about it."
It has me wondering:
How long should we tolerate a problem we KNOW exists simply because nothing is on fire... yet? π
What do you think?
Huge thank you to NHRMA for having me and to everyone who joined my sessions! π
