Haunted by transformations past: 5 ways leaders can finally move on
Every organization has its ghosts. Instead of rattling chains or slamming doors, they lurk in quiet conference rooms, outdated systems and the collective side-eye that greets the phrase, “It’s time for a new transformation!” Such are the remnants of efforts that have overreached, underdelivered or simply wore people out. At IA, we often meet...
From silos to synergy – How integration drives results
One of the hardest parts about organizational transformation isn't the strategy, the budget, or even the technology. It's getting people who live in different worlds, with different priorities, different languages, and different scorecards, to work as one. We've seen brilliant initiatives stall not because the idea was wrong, but because...
Reskilling vs replacement: the case for investing in people
It’s nearly impossible to attend an industry conference, sit through a vendor pitch or read a white paper without hearing the same refrain: Artificial intelligence is going to reshape work, and employees will need to be reskilled or upskilled to stay relevant. The message is delivered with urgency, sometimes even with...

The rise of AI is reshaping job roles and creating new possibilities for people-technology collaboration, while economic pressures demand organizations do more with less, which is not...
Time for a reset: breaking the technology-first transformation trap
When you think about transforming your business, what activities first come to mind? If “buying new technologies” is high on your list, then you’re not alone. The conversation about business transformation has become almost synonymous with technology acquisition. Walk into any boardroom and you’ll hear leaders discussing AI implementations, cloud migrations and...
Making it work – why great ideas need great execution
When navigating digital disruption, shifting customer expectations, and complex operations, I’ve come to one conclusion - great execution is just as important as great strategy. And yet, this crucial component is often overlooked. I’ve seen strategic initiatives stall, change efforts drag on, budgets balloon, and timelines stretch; not because the...

AI’s reckoning: confronting job loss in the Age of Intelligence
For all the excitement surrounding artificial intelligence - be it the streamlining, the scaling, the automation of everything from expense reports to entire supply chains - there’s a harsher truth that too many companies are sidestepping.
