Change leadership - the Black Swan

In this episode Judith Germain has an insightful discussion about leadership and change with Peter Donovan.

Key Takeaways

• Change is now continuous and frequent rather than occasional "black swan" events. Leaders must view everything through this lens.
• Business growth should be examined through the lens of change - iterative, innovative, and disruptive.
• Leaders tend to excel at one type of change but need diverse teams to accomplish broader change.
• Most companies are not ready for disruptive change initially. Small innovative changes prepare the groundwork.
• AI and automation will displace some jobs, so individuals must continuously gain new skills and reinvent themselves.

In this conversation they discuss how iterative leaders accelerate performance through people and process. Innovative leaders launch new offerings. Disruptive leaders transform strategies. Each change type demands tailored leadership and team skills.

Peter Donovan is an executive search professional specialising in organisations seeking positive change and a new or sustained path to profitable growth.
