Are your long-tenured employees blocking performance? Here’s how real leaders respond.
Every organisation has them…long-standing employees (“lifers”) who have built their personal reputation and perceived value on a deep knowledge of the business.
They’ve also built a power base using this knowledge that they’re reluctant to surrender… and they won't do that without a fight.
If you're brought into an organisation with a mandate for change, then making that change is exactly what you have to do. Sometimes, though, the lifers aren't really inclined to help.
We’ve produced a number of episodes over the years on change resistance, and it may be worth your while to go back and explore some of them.
Just remember:
You can even explore how to read the play from your boss… When the CEO says he wants culture change, does he really mean it?!
In this episode, I address specifically how to handle the lifers, whose driving instinct will be to resist any change, and bring down the leader who’s attempting to implement it!
