Tech Leadership Tuesday with Michael Lopp: Doing Reorgs Right with Heidi Helfand

While reorganizations can unleash tremendous business value, they’re inherently disruptive. And when they’re managed poorly, they can do more harm than good. Michael Lopp and Heidi Helfand discuss how to make reorgs as painless as possible for leaders and teams. Join them to understand ways of approaching a reorg strategically to maximize the benefits of the changes, build unity with new teams, and minimize known challenges. You’ll learn when and how to effectively communicate the business goals of the reorg, how to advocate for yourself and team members, and what you can do to help others adapt and thrive during this period of growth and change.
