  1. What problem do you solve?
    • She will help people solve those bumps in the road either by helping them avoid them or get over them.

Show Notes:

  • Change may be harder now due to what we’ve been through in the last few years.
  • It’s easy to say we just need to be more resilient but that’s not always easy.
    • Other things going on in our life can make change harder. 
  • First, we need to own our reaction to the change. We should then educate ourselves so that we at least understand the reason for the change. Then explore how it might help you… will it help you with growth, will it give you new opportunities
  • Also, we need to realize that it may change our position. We then have the opportunity to decide if we want to stay or move on to another place.
  • Organizations need to focus on the people side and engage them. They should realize that people are not used to changing they are tired of it.
  • Organizations need to make sure they listen so that they can explain the change and people can understand it and understand how it affects them. 
  • Beth uses a framework to help explore how the change will affect every single person in the organization. This will help determine if the change is really going to work.
  • Companies should focus on how to make life better for their employees. Improvement in human capital leads to an increase in your company’s capital.
