A healthier organization starts with asking better questions. In my conversation with Aaron Streeton, we explore why true transformation takes more than quick fixes and why leadership, culture, and systems must work together. Learn how a holistic approach can help your organization build lasting change. Visit tenguconsulting.ca and check out Aaron Streeton’s book, The 9 Essential Questions for Organizational Transformation. Also, connect with directly on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aaron-streeton/
I really appreciate Aaron's insights on what it really takes to create healthy organizations. From his consulting work (and his experience in general) to his book and teachings in his webinars, he captures why leadership, culture, structure, processes, and technology must all be aligned for long term success. I don't want to give the entire conversation away here, but we talk about the limits of quick fixes, the importance of defining leadership and culture intentionally, and why organizations need a holistic approach if they want sustainable transformation. Aaron also explains how biases can shape problem solving and why asking the right questions is the first step toward meaningful change.
