On #NationalAuthorsDay, we’re celebrating the power of business storytelling and the courageous professionals who transform their insight into published works that shape our industry. We’re especially proud to spotlight our own Kim Huggins, author of “GENerate Performance! Unleashing the Power of a Multigenerational Workforce.” In her conversations with leaders about hybrid work and organizational culture, Kim emphasizes how leveraging generational strengths creates exceptional employee experiences. Kim’s top takeaways:  🔹APPRECIATE the unique value each generation brings to your team  🔹COMMUNICATE in ways that resonate with different generational values  🔹RECOGNIZE how diverse perspectives can bridge gaps and find common ground  🔹CELEBRATE the ways generations complement and strengthen each other  🔹DISCOVER how different approaches to work can optimize business outcomes  🔹ENGAGE personally with your team members “There’s simply no substitute for the personal touch,” Kim explains, “Leaders today need to get to know their employees on a more individual level. This isn’t a matter of a corporate initiative or a general email to staff. This is about *you.* Interacting on a personal level regularly with your employees.”  Kim’s journey from observation to insight reminds us why business literature matters: It captures hard-won wisdom, sparks crucial conversations, and helps organizations evolve. #AuthorsDay #BusinessWriters #BusinessIdeas #BusinessExcellence #ThoughtLeadership #Leadership #EmployeeExperience #EX #EmployeeEngagement #HybridTeams #OrganizationalCulture #GenerationalStrengths #MultiGenerationalWorkforce

Is your organization resilient, or just lucky? True resilience means you don’t just survive challenges. You thrive in them, by turning adversity into opportunity. Leaders who drive resilience have teams that emerge from turbulent times with more growth, innovation, and agility. Our blog explores what these leaders do well: 🔹Invest in their people: They provide ongoing training and development to ensure their teams have the skills needed to adapt. 🔹Provide clear direction: They set crystal clear vision and communicate it effectively, so everyone is aligned and working towards the same goals. 🔹Foster a culture of collaboration: They break down silos and encourage as well as reinforce agile teamwork. We also cover what these leaders refuse to do: 🔹Cling to the status quo: Instead, they welcome change with open arms by advancing and creating momentum around it – every step of the way (even when it’s hard). 🔹Micromanage: Instead, they trust their teams to make decisions and take initiative. 🔹Ignore challenges. Instead, they address issues head-on, model accountability, and learn from mistakes. Resilience is a competitive edge for any business, but it’s also a crucial asset for a workforce that’s adaptable, healthy, and productive. Use the quick scorecard on our blog to measure your organization’s growing resilience: https://hubs.la/Q02V7G680 #Resilience #OrganizationalResilience #UpliftPerformance #UpliftPeople #BusinessAgility #Leadership #AgileLeaders #AgileTeams #ContinuousImprovement

AI Adoption: Bridging the Gap Between Technology and Human Behavior Insights from Brian Crowley-Koch, Ph.D., on overcoming AI implementation challenges in the workplace. In his latest article, Dr. Crowley-Koch explores why 80-85% of AI projects fail to meet objectives, emphasizing that successful adoption requires more than just implementing new technology. Recent industry research highlighted in the article reveals:  🔹42% of organizations are already using AI in daily business  🔹Only 34% provide resources to help employees use new AI tools  🔹20% lack employees with the right skills for AI adoption Based on these findings and his expertise, Dr. Crowley-Koch recommends leaders focus on three critical areas: 1. Behavioral Change:   🔹Develop processes to support new behaviors and mindsets  🔹Identify and address resistance early  🔹Provide ongoing support for evolving AI capabilities 2. Individual Engagement:   🔹Profile employee skills and learning styles  🔹Create compelling adoption narratives with clear benefits  🔹Celebrate early adopters and support those who struggle 3. Leadership Responsibilities:   🔹Align expectations and observe performance  🔹Remove barriers to adoption  🔹Establish coaching relationships  🔹Leverage peer support through Change Agent Networks "Successful AI adoption is a three-dimensional challenge involving leaders, individuals, and organizational priorities," states Dr. Crowley-Koch. "By focusing on these areas, we can unlock the full potential of AI in our organizations."
