Course objective• This is unique seminar to energize organizational
leadership to face challenge when confronted with transformation challenge
• The seminar hopes to sensitize managers /employees to accelerate buy-in and alignment with transformation and change strategies
• Focus is on learning the critical issues to engineer systematically the escape from lower growth and shrinking margins-the pressing issues of present to be super category killer league
“It is not the strongest that survive, nor the- the challenge of future most intelligent, but the most responsive to change ”. Charles Darwin.

The back ground
• These thoughts were born out of • Intense research, real life experience of implementing
change in a struggling organization
Tuesday, April 11, 2023 dr.sarma 5
Presencing• a blend of the words "presence" and "sensing," refers to
the ability to sense and bring into the present one's highest future potential—as an individual and as a group
Theory U suggests
that the way in which we attend to a situation determines how a situation unfolds: I attend this way, therefore it emerges that way.
• Theory U offers a set of principles and practices for collectively creating the future that wants to emerge (following the movements of co-initiating, co-sensing, co-inspiring, co-creating, and co-evolving).--- Otto Scharmer

‘ORGANIZATION - NOT STATIC
• Hierarchy and control are temporary conditions or outcomes of the system, mere ‘snapshot points’ on a self-organizing journey (as Morgan puts it).
• The fundamental role of managers is to shape and create “contexts” in which appropriate forms of self-organization can occur. (Morgan, 1998:227)

Change essentials• Change requires new mindsets, not just new skills. • Over dependency on the human resource function to
manage change through individual skill development may not work.
• Leadership has to consider the need to advance both individual and collective leadership mindsets and style
“You will either step forward into GROWTH or you will step back into safety”. Abraham Maslow
Tuesday, April 11, 2023 dr.sarma 8
Transformation leadership essential• view leadership as a collective activity that requires
mutual inquiry, learning and a capacity to work with complex challenges.
• Than heroic leadership in Conventional cultures assume that leadership emerges from a variety of individuals based on knowledge and expertise.
• Dependent leadership cultures hold only people in positions of authority responsible for leadership
• Interdependent leadership calls for collective and collaborative leadership behavior

By bringing inside-out leadership into balance with outside in market pressure , fostering change in critical e capabilities and building shared Vision, alignment and commitment. Becomes possible with sufficient escape velocity
Without the human side of the equation, efforts to implement change strategy fails

Challenge to change
Inside out

Leadership shift• leading people, strategic planning, inspiring commitment
and managing change-the weakest competencies of today’s individual leaders.
• Inadequate leadership ability is part of the problem. • “leadership” — not leader. • The shift in focus from development of the individuals to
be heroic leader, • realization of leadership as a collective activity is very
important.

What is escape velocity?
• Escape Velocity is the minimum velocity that an object is required to attain in order to escape from gravitational field of another object.
• Escape velocity does not depends on the mass of the escaping object.
• However, heavier object will require more energy to escape!
• Vescape= 40,000 km/hr = 11 km/sec from the surface of the Earth
Tuesday, April 11, 2023 dr.sarma 12
WHAT IS THE CONNECTION ?When engineering the change the same escape velocity principle applies.
There is a minimum velocity requirement to escape from the pull of the organization's past culture
Here in these sessions we try and understand how to make the change happen

What to Do About That Fork In the Road?
"When the organization comes to a fork in the road...what do you do?”
hesitate about which way to go, now,
with the rest of the life.
Dilemma occurs due to eitherMarket Crisis-occurs at any time Organizational Crisis – shrinking margins
lower Growth

5 -Crucial Questions to ask
1. Is there too much preoccupancy with present?
2. Are we putting enough efforts to shape future collectively?
3. How much individual effort is being done towards future?
4. Is there enough talent around us?5. Is there enough steam in the team6. Is there right talent mix

Whilst a whirlpool has a relatively constant form, it does not exist separately from the movement of the river.
• FOUR ‘LOGICS OF CHANGE’• Autopoiesis- self creating• Chaos & complexity• Mutual causality• Dialectical change

Butterfly effect
The butterfly doesn’t cause in any meaningful sense the hurricane, but the tiny change it causes in its environment leads to another change and another change, and so on…How can managers and leaders cope in the face of such chaos and complexity? five key ideas: Learning the art of managing and changing contextsLearning how to use small changes to create large effectsLiving with continuous transformation and emergent order as a natural state of affairsBeing open to new metaphors that can facilitate processes of self-organization (Morgan, 1998:226)

1. Identify core talents, abilities, competencies, and skills
2. Identify fears.
3. Identify role models and supporters
4. Identify coach
5. Define success
6. Architect a plan
7. Spell out “Actionsteps”
Tuesday, April 11, 2023 dr.sarma 22
1. Identify core talents, abilities, competencies, and skills
Ask :What are my passions and interests in life?What do I love to do, more than anything else?What do I care about, more than anything else?
Identify the linkages to marry your passion and values to your professional contribution

2. Identify fears. Fear is a paralyzer."Behold the turtle...who only makes progress when he
sticks his neck out!"Push forward by asking:
What am I afraid of?What is keeping me from actively pursuing? What's the "pay off" ? What's the “damage”?Is it really a "mistake“? What is “blocking”?

Call your role models and supporters
Behavior modeling and identifying your network
Ask yourself:
Who are the people that I most admire?
What are their qualities that make them so admirable?
How can I fold these admired qualities into my own way of being, while still
keeping my own sense of self and integrity?
Who are the people I can turn to when I need specific measures and the
results?

4. Identify the Coach
Trust the person who will help you to see your blind-spots
Even if one potentially can hold own hand through some dark hours of the professional path “Get a Coach” who will hold you
Page 28Tuesday, April 11, 2023 Saama Confidential
Tuesday, April 11, 2023 dr.sarma 29
Ask people who spent over 6 or 7 years in the company
Confused about Success - What does that mean?What does "success" mean to me?
What does "success" mean to others around me?
What does "success" at my job / in my profession mean, within my organization?
How do I define success in my personal life?
How does "society's" prescribed definition of personal and professional success
influence my own definition of this concept?
Do I suspect that my definition of success will change as I grow older? How?
How can I broaden my personal definition of success?

Architect a Plan
S.T.A.N. – Strategic, Timely And Network... your guts out!
L.B.W.A. – Living By Wandering Around
Try the right brain exercise of mind-mapping or build a collage on the theme of where you want to professionally "go.”
Map out with words, as well, practical, "do-able today" steps to move yourself forward
Page 30Tuesday, April 11, 2023 Saama Confidential
Tuesday, April 11, 2023 dr.sarma 31
7. Call for ActionGive yourself a "butt kick" and take some
action...any action is better than no action, in many cases
It's better to take a action, and find out it's not right for
you, after all, rather than not take any action

CIRCLE OF INFLUENCE
CIRCLE OF CONCERNS
Tuesday, April 11, 2023 dr.sarma 33
Ask :
What is one small but positive step I can put into action today?
What two other things can I do within a defined and
reasonable parameter of time, e.g. next 30 days, to move
me forward even more?
What are at least two strategies for networking with
others (who have something in common with me) that I
am comfortable implementing immediately?How many ways can I continue to expand my Circle of
Influence (CI)?

Personal mastery
dr.sarma Page 42Tuesday, April 11, 2023
Personal mastery. ‘Organizations learn only through individuals who learn. Individual learning does not guarantee organizational learning. But without it no organizational learning occurs’ (Senge 1990: 139).
Personal mastery is the discipline of continually clarifying and deepening our personal vision, of focusing our energies, of developing patience, and of seeing reality objectively’. It goes beyond competence and skills, although it involves them. It goes beyond spiritual opening, although it involves spiritual growth. Mastery is seen as a special kind of proficiency. It is not about dominance, but rather about calling. Vision is vocation rather than simply just a good idea.People with a high level of personal mastery live in a continual learning mode. They never ‘arrive’. Sometimes, language, such as the term ‘personal mastery’ creates a misleading sense of definiteness, of black and white. But personal mastery is not something you possess. It is a process. It is a lifelong discipline. People with a high level of personal mastery are acutely aware of their ignorance, their incompetence, their growth areas. And they are deeply self-confident. Paradoxical? Only for those who do not see the ‘journey is the reward’.
