future leadership

Jonathan Humphries is in conversation with Markus Feller,  discussing what it takes to be a leader of change for today and for the future.

Markus is Head of Innovation and Transformation at SV Group.
SV Group and SV Hotel are responsible for the rollout and success of  Stay Kooook which HoCoSo was involved in. The innovative hotel concept had won the Swiss Innovation Award for Hospitality, and was runner up in the Global innovation awards and just recently, the DACH Customer Experience Award in the hospitality category, and the Serviced Apartment Awards for best use of technology.

Markus leads various initiatives in SV Group, taking the business on a transformation journey for the future.
Given the challenges the hospitality industry faces today, leaders must reinvent themselves, adapt, cope and build resilience for themselves and their teams. 

Jonathan and Markus explore the topic of Agile Leadership and what it takes for teams and organizations to be agile, and do agile:

• What agile thinking is really like?
•  How it is to have an agile mindset?
• What it means to do agile, in terms of behavior and approach?

In this conversation, they also refer to:

• Michael Sahota: THE person to talk to when it comes to leadership
• The Green & Red List: How to overcome resistance in your agile transformation

We discussed our Caroline grew her career and moving from driving outcomes and teams to moving to help people and teams. e talked about operating from self or from service? Plus how just asking someone how they were and helping someone when they weren’t really changed that person and changed Caroline.

Caroline has written a new book Lead Beyond 2030 and provides readers with the tools needed to propel your career, as you invest in yourself and the skills of your team. It’s a powerful exploration of what separates great leaders from the rest and how you can become one of them.

When it comes to questioning and changing organizational structures, you usually get a friendly smile from the board or the executive floor, if at all. Many find it difficult to question the status quo at all and to look for possibilities and ways to do things differently, to make work better, for the individual as well as for the community. Actually, this is one of the core competencies of entrepreneurship. Seeing things that others don't see and then creating something new from them.

But it seems that most organizations have understood this on the output level, but when it comes to the operational, background, and core, i.e. the people in the organization, we are still firmly anchored in the 19th century in thinking and acting.

Listeners and viewers can find out how this can be and what alternatives there are in this exciting conversation with Peter Pröll.

Questions and views highlighted in this episode:

• What does agility mean in the original sense?
• What are the consequences of the permanent surveillance culture in the workplace?
• Creating clarity is essential
• Bullshitbingo Letting go
• Meaningfulness of work and the direct relation health/illness

• Pressure and control are out of place in agile environments

Two years ago, I started to take my LinkedIn activities more seriously, and back then I was looking for intelligent ways to do so. I do not recall exactly how I landed on the TEDx site and at the talk “How to hack Networking" from David. Well, after watching the talk I took the initiative, and with less than 100 connections on LinkedIn, I reached out to David with a connect request.

Even he is a bestselling author with more than 15k followers on LinkedIn alone, he walked the talk and accepted, and it felt great. I invited him to our podcast, he agreed but shortly after we lost contact. This could be the end of the story, and again one more of these loose connections on social media. But it went a different way. Just a couple of months ago we re-connected when I found out about his new upcoming book.

I'm in conversation once again with Ralf Schneider Managing Partner of Better Business.

As the world stabilizes from a public health perspective, curves flatten, and restrictions are eased, what will change, and what will be the same? A magician's question perhaps? If we assume that in a more stable post lockdown world, employees and other stakeholders will increasingly demand spaces that allow for more human, whole-person engagement, what is the leader's work in creating this? How do leaders prepare and support their organizations in preparing for this? How do we create better businesses that are more resilient and outlast crisis?

We've generally become better at holding cooperation and collaboration. Are we at the same time limited by our mono focus on efficiency, optimization, or whatever an organization's performance holy grail is? To date, our successes have largely come at the expense of spaces for innovation, courage, and more flexible, sustainable processes, systems, and structures.

What we really need organizations, is innovation at the business model level. Listen to find out how this already works and could work in your organization. Enjoy.

The Better Business Insitute is offering a free webinar series until the end of May 2020. The idea is to dialogue and innovate towards better business.
