The document outlines Ayelet Baron's vision for creating a connected organization for the 21st century. It begins by imagining what such an organization could look like if everyone had the same vision of the future and translated it to their daily work. It then discusses the need for organizations to embrace constant change, build a culture of experimentation, and develop a connected, networked structure. The document argues that truly changing organizational culture requires leadership engagement, skills development, and embedding new practices and values into the organizational DNA. It promotes fostering open relationships, trust, and dialogue among employees, customers, partners and other stakeholders to build the connectivity required for success in today's world.

3. IMAGINE
… JUST IMAGINE
Imagine
that
everyone
in
your
organiza9on
could
see
into
the
future
Imagine
that
you
had
the
ability
to
paint
the
future
in
dis9nct
colors
Imagine
that
those
colors
would
be
the
colors
of
your
organiza4on’s
future
state
and
you
would
exceed
your
goals
Imagine
that
everyone
across
the
company
had
the
same
vision
and
translated
it
to
their
day-‐to-‐day
job:

outside
your
own
industry
for
inspira9on
is
as
useful
as
it’s
ever
been,
but
you
need
people
who
can
think
laterally
enough
to
apply
an
unfamiliar
idea
to
their
own
situa9on.”

28. Understanding Change
Change happens every time
our expectations are
disrupted
Is it a major or
minor change for
her?
What is the level of
disruption in her
expectations?

30. Leadership? Sponsorship is Misunderstood
Change is Hard When Words Don’t Match Actions
Which way should I go?
I am not confident in
where she is going so I’ll
just stay here and wait.

31. Cultural DNA is Key

Organizations that
embed practices,
technologies and values
in their DNA are more
agile, flexible and
achieve results.
There is no
way I can do
that. That’s
not how we roll
here

32. 20th Century Skill Sets Don’t Always Work in
the 21st Century
I read the email
but I have no idea
what they want me
to do
If I just keep
blowing bubbles,
will anyone notice?
h"p://ayeletbaron.com
33. I am just
going through
the motions.
They won’t
notice.
Resistance is Alive and Well
I have no idea
where we are
headed so I am
just going to
keep doing what
I know.
We’ve tried
this before.
It won’t
work here.

37. The Only Constant is Change:
We Need Resilience Not More Ambassador Programs
Key Needs
• Clear urgency of future
state
• shared vision and execution
• Time to think, create, fail
and innovate
• Leadership support and
engagement
