Is your team working? Good enough that you don’t have to do anything? Are you thinking “…if it aint broke don´t fix it…”? You must respect things that work. But sometimes the fact that things work can be what destroys. Things that work often mean that you continue in the old track, without dealing with unpleasantness or disagreements. Which in most cases is perfectly fine, as long as reality remains fairly stable. It doesn’t always do that.
The man behind this statement is Frode Heldal, associate professor at Trondheim School of Economics and Nord University. He has written several articles, specialist books and popular scientific publications on the topics of change management, creative teams, communication and development.
At ACT’s partnership gathering, he is coming to talk about two topics.
23.11 Change management is on the agenda – Change management in a Digital everyday life. Because we must all digitize and streamline and automate and modernize. But is your team keeping up? Was the digital transformation as efficient as you had thought?
24.11. Cooperation and open communication are the theme. Because there are dilemmas on the scale of open/less open/strictly secret innovation. And how to meet these when you must collaborate with other companies? And are you aware of the types of communication that lead to misunderstandings and mistrust, and how you can avoid getting there?
