Case Studies on Culture
Leadership styles, effective communication, organisational transformation and more
Hybrid and remote work don’t fail because people are apart, they fail because systems aren’t built to sustain clarity at distance. This case study contrasts business and military communication to reveal how leadership architecture, discipline, and feedback loops transform scattered teams into coordinated systems capable of consistent, high-performance execution under pressure.
Recently I was chatting with a senior leader about their frustration around leading organisational change. No matter how much conversation took place and no matter how many people outwardly agreed the change was required: Why was it so difficult to get those that agreed to execute?
Examines whether HR’s people-first identity has led to an overpopulation of agreeable temperaments, and how that imbalance affects credibility, strategy, and performance.
Elon Musk’s approach to turning Twitter from an ideological bot ridden financial car crash to a financially stable trustworthy global town square is fraught with controversy. Many commentators have no understanding of what’s involved to drive the level of change Twitter requires. If we lay out the facts: Is changing Twitter to X an effective organisational transformation model?
If your team, department or company is about to embark on a transformation OR already embarked on one and progress is stalling, then it's highly likely your organisation lacks Strategic Thinking. This manifests similar to an Ant Mill Death Spiral, a continuously rotating circle of ants repeating their vicious cycle until they die of exhaustion. Business leaders can also succumb to this phenomenon.
It’s speculated, according to the world of academia, that 50-90% of strategic initiatives fail. A controversial range, however it does raise an interesting question. Why does strategy have a high failure rate?
