This week I have part two of my interview with Colin Ellis, The Cultured Guy, talking about his new book: Detox Your Culture: Deliver results, retain staff, and strengthen your organization's reputation. (link to buy here: ⁠⁠⁠https://amzn.to/3UnyIWu⁠⁠⁠) About Colin He is a global workplace culture expert sought after by organisations around the world who want to create and evolve vibrant, high-performance cultures. With a career spanning three decades, he journeyed from humble beginnings to orchestrating transformative initiatives in global private and government sectors. Throughout this remarkable odyssey, he garnered profound insights into human dynamics which now serve as the bedrock of his practice. His approach is unique. Working closely with my clients, he creates experiences that generate incredible passion and unrivalled impact. Using energy, humour, lived experience and empirical evidence, he ignites an unquenchable fire of enthusiasm within individuals and teams, making it impossible for them not to be inspired by the untapped potential of their culture. He has written four best-selling books, won awards for his public speaking, host two podcasts and has received many accolades from clients who have benefitted from the work they’ve done together. His passion for his vocation knows no bounds. He is driven by an unyielding commitment to enhancing the professional landscape for others. He believes wholeheartedly that hard work and laughter are not mutually exclusive; this ethos permeates his work and the experiences he curates for my clients. His relentless pursuit of excellence ensures that what he offers remains contemporary and invaluable, reflecting his dedication to fostering a harmonious, productive, vibrant, and safe work environment for all. He is a lifelong Evertonian, a music and comedy fan, whisky lover, proud Dad and always first up on the karaoke destroying ‘Hey Jude’ by The Beatles! https://www.colindellis.com/

This episode I have part two of my chat with the returning of ⁠⁠Tammy Watchorn - The Original Change Ninja⁠⁠ to the show.

Her approach to change management, focusing on human elements over rigid processes, has made her a unique voice in the field, especially appealing to those looking for more organic, less disruptive ways to implement change in both personal and professional settings. Initially, Dr. Watchorn worked in the public sector, particularly in health care, leading projects and complex organizational change programs. She transitioned from a traditional career path to focus more on innovative ways of working, inspired by her experiences and teachings from Prof. Eddie Obeng. Dr. Watchorn's approach to change management is encapsulated in her "Change Ninja" persona, emphasizing stealth, strategic, and human-focused methods over traditional, process-heavy management styles. This approach aims at making change less confrontational and more aligned with human behaviours and motivations. She authored "The Change Ninja Handbook," which is described as a gamified, choose-your-own-adventure book designed to teach change management through interactive scenarios. This was followed by "The Change Ninja Returns," where she applies her change management techniques to personal life challenges, using herself as a case study. Her philosophy revolves around focusing on people rather than processes, understanding and leveraging human motivations, and adapting to change rather than resisting it. She advocates for a 'Just in Time' learning approach where results are immediate and repeatable. Dr. Watchorn is recognized for her engaging and interactive keynotes, where she shares tools for managing change, understanding stakeholder preferences, and leading transformations in a way that's both effective and less resistant. Her work has been recognized in the Business Book Awards, and she's known for her innovative training methods, which include virtual 3D environments designed around human interactions rather than technology for technology's sake. Her journey into change management was partly driven by personal life challenges, which she turned into a learning opportunity, further enriching her teachings and writings.
