Listen Later

When you find yourself drowning in change metrics and conflicting feedback from multiple transformation initiatives, how do you make sense of it all? Join Agile Uprising Host Andy Cleff and his guest Patrick Verdonk as they explore why traditional change frameworks alone aren't enough in today's complex organizations.

Patrick, an experienced change facilitator and author of "Beyond Frameworks: Navigating the Ripple Effects of Change Model Interactions", shares insights from his research and practical experience on how different change models interact and influence each other. Using Nokia's transformation journey as a backdrop, they discuss how change agents can better recognize and interpret signals that indicate the need for change, avoid common pitfalls, and make sense of complexity.

Whether you're an agile coach, transformation leader, or change practitioner, you'll leave with practical approaches for navigating organizational change and understanding the ripple effects of transformation initiatives. Learn how to move beyond single-framework solutions and develop a more nuanced understanding of change in complex environments.

Key topics include:

  • Moving beyond traditional change frameworks
  • Understanding how different change models interact
  • Practical approaches to sensemaking in organizations
  • Recognizing and interpreting signals of change
  • Real-world lessons from Nokia's transformation journey
