Orchestrating Transformation - How to Deliver Winning Performance with a Connected Approach to Change

Michael Wade, James Macaulay, Andy Noronha

Summary

Company leaders feel the urgency to transform their organizations in the face of digital disruption. New rivals are digitizing whatever can be digitized to attack incumbents’ value chains, gaining market share, eroding margins, and wreaking havoc to the competitive landscape in virtually every industry. 
For large and midsized companies, the imperative to transform is clear. How to transform is another matter. 
The hard truth is that despite leaders’ best efforts, and billions spent in pursuit of digital transformation, the vast majority of organizational change programs fizzle, falling well short of their expected impacts. But organizations can ill-afford for their transformation programs to flop. Failed transformation programs put incumbents behind the eight ball when it comes to dealing with disruptive competition. 
With this important new book, Orchestrating Transformation: How to Deliver Winning Performance with a Connected Approach to Change, the team at the Global Center for Digital Business Transformation, an IMD and Cisco initiative, set out a new prescription for getting transformation right. 
The piecemeal strategies and pilot projects that are hallmarks of conventional transformation programs are hopelessly inadequate for the intricate, sprawling organizational environments found in most companies. Transformation practitioners need a different mindset and a new approach to executing change that can handle the complexity and scale of today’s market leaders. Orchestration—"mobilizing and enabling so as to achieve a desired effect”—paves the way for a new, more holistic view of organizational resources and how they work together to drive change synergistically.  
The follow-up to 2016’s award-winning Digital Vortex, the book is packed with quantitative and qualitative insights from years of applied research and engagement with executives around the world. 
A unique and indispensable guide for practitioners, Orchestrating Transformation moves past traditional change management doctrine to show how a connected approach to change can change everything.

Maya Thoresen

Hygge and Lagom, Your Personal Prescription for Happiness and Balance in an Unhappy and Out of Control World 
If you are feeling as though you’ve lost your way recently, you’re not alone. Many of us feel disconnected from the world we live in. 
It’s no wonder, given just how fast the world moves these days. Technology brings so many benefits, but it comes at a steep cost. Our happiness.  
Many of us are left feeling alone, disillusioned, and unhappy. These feelings make us withdraw from family, friends, and even the society to which we belong. 
Join the Happiest People on Earth… 
Hygge and Lagom are two Scandinavian principles that are catching on in the rest of the world. For a long time, these countries have topped the charts in the world’s “happiness index.” 
What makes them so different and what are these two special principles? 
This Book is actually TWO books in One.  
You get a full discussion on both including 21-day challenges to help you adopt these principles. Either book stands its own, but the real synergy takes place when you embrace both. This will give you a feeling of lasting happiness and contentment. One that you can practice for a lifetime and join those Scandinavians as some of the happiest and most fulfilled people on the planet.

LET ME IN - a Japanese American...

Elaine Koyama

A twenty-two-year-old Japanese American woman enters the management ranks of a major corporation and encounters...just what you'd expect. Sexism. Misogyny. Racial Bias. And she breaks barriers anyway.
From the moment Elaine Koyama was hired as a management trainee at agri-business giant Cargill, Inc. she found herself entangled in the endless fight to wedge herself through the doors the women's movement opened. As men and women all over the country began to examine and redefine the boundaries of their roles, Koyama, fresh out of Stanford, navigated farmyard sales calls, meetings at strip clubs, and a new life in the heart of the Midwest. In LET ME IN, Koyama shares the true story of how she fought her way through the corporate jungle before the term "glass ceiling" was even coined.
"Among the first women to blaze trails through America's boys' club of business, Elaine's story is our American story, as well as the modern history of American business." Ann Swanson, PhD, International Baccalaureate consultant.
Elaine Koyama grew up on a sheep, wheat and sugar beet farm in eastern Montana. She is the youngest of eight sansei (third-generation) Japanese Americans. She spent twenty years at Cargill, twenty years as an entrepreneur, and plans on spending the next twenty years writing.
The mother of three adult children, Elaine, with her Yorkie-poo Kiba, now splits her time between Miltona and Minneapolis (though she considers Hardin, Montana home). Visit www.elainekoyama.com to follow her blog, Musings of an UnGeisha and learn more about her writing workshops, Retreat2Write.
