How to Be the Grit in the Oyster delivers a unique and successful model for leading business change in an increasing diverging environment. Change is no longer escapable, businesses are continuously changing yet most transformations fail, often quoted at 75%. This figure has not improved over time. There are articles and books purporting to address this issue and most of these focus on process and defining the change required. This book, based on the authors experience takes a different path. It asserts that at the core of this failure leaders take little account of the impact of the drive for diversity alongside societal diversification and they have failed to adjust their leadership style and delivery models accordingly.Our workplace is more diverse than it has ever been. It appears that leaders have been blindsided by the intended consequence of this - that we all think and behave differently. Leadership models and delivery practices have continued to be implemented along historical lines built during the decades of compliant workforces. Younger generations have been freed to think and behave as they wish. A kind of emancipation of diverse thinking.To lead in this new paradigm requires a different approach. The Grit in the Oyster achieves three outcomes for the reader. Firstly, to get them to the ’aha moment’ that we are living in a different environment. Secondly, to get them to realise they need, as leaders, to behave in the right way to create the space for teams to blossom and then finally, a model to build and guide teams to successful outcomes.
