The Six Weeks Horizon: The Firm and its Management: Defining and validating a Strategic Framework by Jean-Christophe Gaillard
This is really the time-horizon over which the new CISO must start assessing their new position. Once again, many of the management tips we will be building up in this series could apply to any executive taking up a senior job in a new organisation.
The Black Swans of Change by Jacqui Alexander
Recently I shared my six principles of delivering change at pace – in this post, I focus on the second principle – ‘Take a step by step approach’ but what has that got to do with black swans?
6 Stages of Change Management by Rose Padfield
Last month, you learned about the award-winning change management project I ran recently together with my associates. This month, you’ll discover how you can apply our unique six-stage methodology to your own change programme, with its focus on yourself and others (know yourself and know/support others).

It is often poorly understood by management and still seen by some as a necessary evil, or as an imposition by auditors or regulators.
We Need More Misfits by Kelly Swingler
In business and particularly in HR we talk about ‘fit’. The right fit for the role, team fit, cultural fit, it’s all about fit and often as people we expect to fit in or try our best to so that we feel a sense of belonging.
