"Continuous improvement, engaged people, and change leadership capabilities are the key ingredients for a successful organisation"
👏 Happy Friday!
On this day, June 30th, 1905, Albert Einstein submitted his paper titled “Zur Elektrodynamik bewegter Körper” (On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies) to the Annalen der Physik, a renowned scientific journal at the time. He was 26 and was working as a class 3 clerk at the Swiss Patent Office in Bern. His theory of special relativity is one of the most important papers ever published in the field of physics. He determined that the laws of physics are identical for all non-accelerating observers, and that the speed of light in a vacuum is independent of the motion of all observers. Einstein’s special theory of relativity introduced a new framework for all of physics and proposed an interweaving of space and time into spacetime. A building block of his theory is that of mass-energy equivalence, defined by the most famous equation in physics, E=mc^2. Albert Einstein (1879-1955) is widely regarded as one of the most influential scientists of all time, and his contributions to modern science are immeasurable.
✅ Albert Einstein is supposed to have told us, “The leader is one who, out of the clutter, brings simplicity. Out of discord, harmony and, out of difficulty, opportunity.” Whether the quote is true or not, this is the way he worked, and the choices leaders now face. In the intricacies of today’s world, leaders are confronted with the task of manoeuvring through the clutter to simplify the conflicting laws, regulations, and environmental factors. Leaders also have to work through the discord of societal norms to find harmony and be able to express their genuine beliefs, opinions, or values without fear of being cancelled. Additionally, in this era of tremendous change and revolutionary technological advancements, business leaders need to find opportunities and conquer change. Simplify, Engage and Conquer Change.
"Continuous improvement, engaged people, and change leadership capabilities are the key ingredients for a successful organisation"
👉 Large organisations will be continuously pursuing high-priority strategic change initiatives. The increasing pace, complexity, and unpredictability of change means that being able to implement change effectively and efficiently will determine an organisation’s future competitiveness. Organisations will have to become change capable and develop leaders with change skills and knowledge, and those with superior internal change capability will stay ahead in the marketplace. Organisational change leadership is about effectively and proactively articulating the vision, modelling the new way, and intervening to ensure sustainable change.
Have a fantastic weekend with the ones you love and care for, enjoy some fresh air, exercise, eat, drink and be happy.
