Challenges of Change
Changing the way we change |

and behave is, in our experience, often put in the ‘too difficult’ box. None

War for talent rages in the City |
In 2010 we interviewed 34 senior leaders of UK banks. This was Bath Consultancy Group’s second inquiry and we wanted to investigate whether the financial crisis had led not only to new strategies being implemented but also whether banks had taken the opportunity to change both their approach to leadership and the embedded culture within their organisations.
Significantly, we found that while there had been major change in terms of strategy only13% of leaders had undertaken a culture change programme and only just over a quarter had changed their approach to leadership development.

Integrated Change for a Complex World |
Organisations are not predictable; ‘planning' doesn't seem to work any
more; even the most respected pathways to success and growth (such as
Jack Welsh's ‘GE way') are seen to be flawed. And yet some
organisations are finding ways to flourish and succeed in this new
environment. What do they know that others don’t ?
