A recent survey by Gartner reveals that 76% of logistics transformation projects fail to meet key performance metrics such as budget, timeline, and other critical KPIs. The survey, which included 306 logistics professionals from companies with over $500 million in annual revenue, highlights the importance of leadership's approach to team resistance and feedback. The survey also found that most logistics leaders recognize the importance of transformation, with 81% believing it to be critical. However, only 20% effectively use resistance to enhance outcomes. The common urgency-driven approach, characterized by a “get with the program” mindset, decreases the odds of success by 47%.

It’s time to redefine the approach to transformation. Instead of the traditional top-down targets and bottom-up delivery model, leadership should adopt a middle-out approach. By harnessing the ingenuity and creativity of an organization’s middle management, companies can develop the innovative solutions needed to unlock the full potential of transformation. https://lnkd.in/eGeBZsbT?

CEO, @FMTG & Founder @ParentProjects | Pioneering AgeTech & AI Innovation | Speaks to Caregiving, Veteran & Faith-Based Leadership
When we discuss business transformations, we tend to emphasize the role of CEOs and C-suite executives. And while they do play key roles in any business transformation, we can't forget the importance of other employees... especially middle managers. "Sustained performance improvement isn't solely about cutting costs; it's about fundamentally changing how an organization operates and what it achieves," writes Michael Mankins and Patrick Litre. This is why middle managers play such a crucial role in any successful business transformation; they interact with employees daily and shape the culture of work for most people. I like the tips that Mankins and Litre share for business leaders who want to help middle managers drive transformation: 🌟 Enlist your best middle managers. Transforming a business demands a blend of creativity and ingenuity, and by setting this challenge, you can test and nurture the next generation of leaders. 🌟 Empower middle managers to sponsor transformative changes. Actively encouraging middle managers to bring forth innovative ideas and to provide adequate support when these managers propose significant changes is key. 🌟 Reward bold action and results. Successful transformation demands a fundamental reexamination of every aspect of a business to achieve breakthrough results. To achieve this, rewards must reinforce this need for wholesale change. #BusinessTransformation #Leadership #MiddleManagers
