What actually makes a difference to the success of your change initiative?  And what is just a big waste of time?  My guest this week is Justin Balaski. Justin is the founder and principle consultant of IdeaLeap and is an award-winning change management professional who helps corporations and government agencies maximize benefits from change initiatives and develop organizational change agility. Justin takes a people-centric approach to lean change management that is focused on co-creation and experimentation.  In this episode, we explore why you need to take a more agile approach to change management. An agile approach is a deeper method of learning and experimentation. There is a smaller amount of planning that is conducted more often instead of doing a big heavy plan in the beginning and not revising it as the change is taking effect.  Justin takes us through the opportunities that arise from taking a fresh, more modern approach to change management. We talk about what agile and lean change management is all about and what actually moves the needle forward on your change projects.  Justin then takes us through the practices, lightweight tools, mindset and team rituals that you can use to bring a leaner approach to change management every day. He encourages all change agents to step out of their comfort zone and try experimenting with something new. You will start finding excellent results by using a more agile approach to change management without all of the heavy planning.  I could’ve chatted with Justin all day! He’s an absolute wealth of information and practical ideas that you can start implementing in your change strategy right now to effectively engage your team and deliver change success.  LINKS: Resources mentioned:  IdeaLeap: https://idealeap.com/downloads  Connect with Justin Balaski:  Website: https://idealeap.com/  LinkedIn: https://ca.linkedin.com/in/justinbalaski  Connect with me:  Website:https://www.everchange.com.au/ LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/drkatebyrne
