Our company is going through a major transformation and there is quite a bit of resistance due to uncertainty and lots of broken promises. Are there any books you would recommend on how to change corporate culture and help employees adapt to change?

Culture Code and Radical Candor. Start with humility, admit mistakes, seek to understand, and try to help. Employees don’t care about your change if you don’t care about them.

Thanks VPM1. Things are OK. MY VP and I have worked hard to create new processes and increase collaboration across different teams which is a huge improvement. It's a big ship we're trying to steer but there is progress being made nonetheless. We also hired a consulting company to help us identify other areas where we need to make improvements. I'm learning this is truly all about change management so I'm learning more about that. This has been a huge learning experience and I have no regrets joining the company. I really like the people I work with and that goes a long way.

We’re going through a merger and using this:

OP please report back in 46 weeks.

I was going to also recommend culture code! And Amazon 1 exactly right. The leaders have already proven they don’t care because they broken promises made. So whatever the reasoning is, they don’t believe it. At this point any transformation will feel surface level.

(I’m currently working on my Masters in Org Behavior! Feel free to DM me. There are a couple of theories you could look into if you really wanted to dig in.)

Sorry! I just realized this was 14 weeks ago!! Op- How’s it going?!

I work at a Financial Institution and have recently been approached about a Director role with my prior company.

I would love to hear from working moms in senior leadership roles to understand if it’s possible to balance both, or is it best to wait a few more years?
