How do you prepare your people for change?
Many great points here. Especially the thought that the best strategy of change management is to teach and train people first, before the new technologies or new tools arrive. It is certainly more difficult but it is also much better than springing surprises on people when they are unprepared. Let them know what is coming and give them the tools to meet it – that is how to reduce the fear and resistance for a win-win strategy. - Varnika Saxena
Want better performance? Decouple goals and bonuses
In a way it is a revolutionary method of thinking. The Pavlovian approach of rewarding performance is so ingrained in organisations. But then when people think less of the reward, and more of doing well for the sake of the accomplishment itself, they should also be more open to new learnings and new strategies. However if bonuses are decoupled, should the next step not be about giving better base pay to keep people financially secure as they innovate in their work? - Ruhan Dey 8

The winning solution for a future of work
Fully agree that hybrid success is not just about getting back into the office! If we are to be obsessed with any part of hybrid, it is the support and wellbeing aspect that we should be obsessed with. We need to design this future around people and not keep squeezing them into a 'new' vision that really has nothing new about it but is just the old vision recycled. - Tania Bhatia
