When the Ground Shifts

What do you do when the ground shifts under everyone’s feet?

Major changes are happening all the time in organisations – it’s not a matter of if, but when. And they never arrive at a convenient time. They hit when you're deep into delivering something important.

What you do next can set you apart from the rest.

In this quick video, we explore Leadership Agility and the practical moves that great leaders (and great facilitators) make when the ground shifts.

Three things great leaders (and great facilitators) do disruption hits:

Read the room first

Acknowledge what's happening before diving into solutions. People can't move forward when they're still processing big news.

Make it relevant immediately

Connect your approach to their current reality. Don't make them do the mental gymnastics.

Create space for emotions

Change is messy. Great leaders help teams process, not just push through.

What are some of the approaches you keep in your playbook to help you flip disruption into momentum?
