Going hand in hand with AI and technology is the overall pace of change.

While things used to evolve more slowly, we’re seeing how we live and work changing at a breakneck pace. That means trends cycle through much more quickly and products and ideas don’t stay relevant for long.

Organizations have to constantly be looking forward and evolving or they run the risk of getting left behind.?

And for as fast as it is now, the pace of change is only going to increase. Leaders must lean in and set the tone for their employees to embrace change instead of fearing it.

Future leaders need to be agile, easily adaptable, and comfortable challenging the status quo. It’s the leaders who are willing to take risks and be the change that will lead their companies to the greatest success.

What you can do now:

  • Experiment and test ideas frequently, both for yourself and your team. Constantly look for new and better ways of doing things so you can get in the habit of continual evolution instead of staying stuck in your ways.
  • Don’t let fear guide your decision-making. Embrace uncertainty.
  • Pay attention to trends impacting your industry, your company, and your career.

“The pace of change today is slower than it will ever be again. If you look at it from that perspective, you realize that there is very little time to learn about, acclimate to, and promulgate amongst your people, friends, and new processes and new ways of doing things. That puts a lot more pressure on leadership than we’ve ever seen before. The role of leadership is much more focused on what is coming and getting people throughout the organization to change the paradigm and change it constantly.” Richard Fain, chairman and CEO of Royal Caribbean Cruises

“When the rate of change on the outside exceeds the rate of change on the inside, the end is near.” Jack Welch, former chairman and CEO of General Electric?

Change management will be crucial for the next gen leadership. It will be important to anticipate the change , prepare the team to embrace the change and evolve the policy around the change. It will lead to smooth integration of the change into the current system and thereby will make the system agile and adpative.

The pace of change has been increasing for years and seems to have gone into hyperdrive since the onset of the pandemic. Jacob Morgan's work on Leadership trends and the Future of Work is a quick, easy and informative read. Have at it.

One of the challenge, i see as a leader is to get the right Talent in the organisation. If an organisation is banded with anarchic ways of recruitment of candidate basis his years of experience and bracketing his salary bracket according to it, is not living in current world. They should be agile and identifying the right candidate for the job and be ready to pay market rate. It would help build a great organisation which is agile and adaptive to change.
