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 Instead of rattling chains or slamming doors, they lurk in quiet conference rooms, outdated systems and the collective side-eye that greets the phrase, “It’s time for a new transformation!”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 leaders gearing up for yet […]

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 no one connected the dots. […]

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 alarm. Consulting firms warn that […]

The power of intentionality
FROM MARK IA few days ago, I found myself in a familiar spot. As I crawled through the school pickup line (which, incidentally, is an unsanctioned Olympic sport), I rapidly muted and unmuted my phone during a leadership call, factually half-present in both places and fully grounded in neither. Barely avoiding a slow-motion accident due […]

What if HR Tech wasn’t about tech at all?
FROM MARK In the days that have passed since the HR Technology Conference, I find myself reflecting on both the progress our industry has made and the challenges that perpetually remain. The show itself is always equal parts energizing and exhausting, but this year felt especially meaningful. Being back in the mix, sharing ideas on […]

The Biggest Project Risk You’re Ignoring
When companies bring us in to lead a project or program, it’s often because something is stuck. The strategy is sound, resources are in place, and people are working hard, but progress is slow, inconsistent, or stalling altogether.
