Ron Ashkenas to Conduct Webinar for OD Network

The purpose of this webinar is to give you a way of helping managers diagnose and deal with self-generated complexity

One of the most significant challenges facing managers today is how to deal with increasing complexity, a phenomenon which causes people to work harder and harder and never feel like they have gotten anything done. Some of this complexity is inevitable in a global, technologically-enabled, matrixed world. Yet much of the complexity is self-generated – caused by the way managers structure and manage their work.

The purpose of this webinar is to give you a way of helping managers diagnose and deal with self-generated complexity – and gradually give them the skills to create simpler, more nimble, more effective, and more satisfying organizations. Based on his book Simply Effective, Ron Ashkenas will show:

  • four ways that managers create complexity
  • how to diagnose the opportunities for improvement in each area
  • how to launch a rapid-cycle process for capturing them

While this interactive, engaging webinar will include a number of Ron's case examples, time will also be provided for participants to apply the principles to their own clients and cases.
