SUMMARY:MnCMN Change Summit - Win-Win-Win: How Leaders Break Down Silos to Build Change-Ready Cultures (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Too often\, change efforts fail not because the strategy is wrong\, but because the culture around the work rewards competition\, protects silos\, and makes collaboration harder than it should be.In this June Change Summit\, Michelle Smeby will explore what it takes to move from win-lose dynamics to a win-win-win culture\, one where leaders\, practitioners\, and cross-functional partners work together more effectively to support change. Drawing on decades of transformation leadership and executive coaching experience\, Michelle will share how leadership behavior and team culture shape whether people speak up\, bring their best ideas\, and work across boundaries to achieve lasting change.This session will be especially relevant for change practitioners looking to strengthen their influence\, leaders seeking better outcomes from transformation efforts\, and internal partners in HR\, IT\, PMO\, communications\, and related functions who help create the conditions for adoption and sustained results.Attendees can expect practical examples\, reflection on real leadership behaviors that either enable or undermine change\, and ideas for creating a more collaborative environment where people and teams can succeed together.What You'll Learn:Participants will leave with greater clarity on:how win-lose dynamics show up inside organizations and quietly undermine collaboration\, trust\, and change efforts the role leaders\, practitioners\, and cross-functional partners each play in shaping a culture that supports stronger change outcomes practical ways to foster more win-win-win behaviors across teams\, functions\, and stakeholder groups how leadership behavior and team norms influence whether people speak up\, align\, and work through change together Who Should Attend:This event may be especially valuable to:change practitioners looking to strengthen influence and cross-functional partnership people leaders and sponsors responsible for change results HR\, IT\, PMO\, communications\, and employee engagement professionals who help create the conditions for adoption and sustained changeSpeaker:\n\n\nMichelle Smeby is a Charter Member of the Minnesota Change Management Network and a transformation leader with more than 25 years of experience helping organizations lead complex change. Across Fortune 500 companies and global transformations spanning more than 70 countries on 6 continents\, she has seen firsthand how leadership behavior\, culture\, and collaboration shape whether change efforts succeed or fail.As an author\, consultant\, trainer\, and executive coach\, Michelle turns those lessons into practical guidance for leaders and change professionals alike. Her work explores how to move beyond silos\, resistance\, and change fatigue to create more collaborative\, resilient\, and sustainable ways of working. Those same themes come to life in her writing\, including her latest book\, The Tenacious Leader.Michelle is a frequent speaker on leadership\, resistance to change\, and change agent effectiveness. She is also a Senior Member of IEEE and holds a Six Sigma Green Belt certification.
