• Chaotic times require adaptive leadership, he says • “It's very easy to get into a conversation about history” (Total Recorded Time is 17:30) In these chaotic and incredibly uncertain times, effective leadership can fall back on a proven, specific way of leading and managing teams, says Ed Muzio, chief executive officer of Group Harmonics of Austin, Texas, and a three-time author of books on leadership. “Every management team has in it some level of a fictitious belief that they can see the future,” Mr. Muzio says. “One thing that happens an awful lot in management teams – and I mean at all levels – is that it's very easy to get into a conversation about history.” Mr. Muzio says leaders need to move such conversations away from what happened to better plan for a rapidly evolving future. With the future so uncertain in 2020, he says leaders should rake their best steps today – but be ready to change everything tomorrow. Ed Muzio expands on these ideas and more in this CVBT Audio/Video Interview Podcast.

Getting leadership to listen to HR is critical for the success of your HR department as well as for the success of your organization. But it can be very challenging to get them to really hear you. We discuss this, aligning goals across leadership, avoiding and correcting silos, and much more with our guest, Ed Muzio. Below is a partial transcript of this episode. For a complete transcript, go here: https://hrdailyadvisor.blr.com/2019/08/07/getting-senior-leadership-to-truly-listen-to-hr/ Jim: Hello, everyone, and welcome to HR Works, the podcast for HR professionals. We really appreciate you taking the time out of your busy day to join us. I am the host of HR Works—Jim Davis—and the editor of the HR Daily Advisor. Today, we are joined by a strategic HR expert, Ed Muzio. Ed’s mantra is higher output, lower stress, sustainable growth. He is also the author of a number of books, including his most recent, Iterate: Run a Fast, Flexible, Focused Management Team, an Inc. Original publication, and that was published in 2018. Ed has also been featured in national and international media, including CBS News, Fox Business News, and the New York Post, and has contributed regularly to CBS, Monster.com, and the Huffington Post, among others. Jim: Ed, thank you so much for taking the time to join us today. We are really excited to have you here. Muzio: Jim, thank you. It’s great to be here. Jim: Why do so many of us in HR have a hard time making ourselves understood to senior leadership? Muzio: You know, I think the answer has a lot to do with language and the language we use to talk about the work and the output it produces. Senior leadership, in my experience, and I do a lot of work with middle to senior leaders and executives; they’re focused on what they’re focused on, which is producing output for stakeholders, and a lot of times in HR, we have some language problems with that. For example, here’s one that I talk about in my book Iterate. I like to say we have a deficit of language around managing. We have what I call managing with a capital ING, and that is if you have direct reports, you are managing them, with a capital ING. You’re setting goals. You’re helping them develop. You’re modeling policy. You’re dealing with issues. I think HR is very good about talking about those kinds of things and has a lot of good tools for that. Often, you’re also doing what I would call change management, with a capital CHANGE, which is major shifts in structure or purpose for the whole organization, shepherding large groups of people through those shifts—again, an important thing to do, just like managing, and HR has some good tools and some good language. But there’s a third part of the equation, and it’s what I call management with a capital MENT, and that is that anyone who’s in management, particularly true in middle and senior leadership, is part of a system of people who are together working to allocate and reallocate the resources of the organization in pursuit of its output, to keep adjusting it back on track toward the output we need it to produce. We don’t have, a lot of times in HR, good language for that, and so we end up talking—whether it’s about tactical things like hiring and firing or whether it’s even about strategic things like talent strategy or succession planning—we end up using a lot of language that’s sort of internally focused, whereas what our clients care about and what they’re hearing about from the other people around their sort of metaphorical and physical leadership table is they’re hearing about their output. What am I doing? What are you doing to support their output? I think when HR has a hard time drawing that line, when we don’t do a good job of saying, “Look, I’m here in support of your output, and here’s what I’m doing in support of your output,” I think we have a hard time honestly getting taken seriously by the people we’re trying to serve.

Today’s HR pros are seeing a shift in their roles within organizations, from administrative managers and leaders to playing an integral role in business strategy and success. How to successfully navigate that transition and deliver value to the organization can be a challenge, and one that many are looking for help and guidance on.   That’s where my guest on today’s Future of Work Talk comes in. Ed Muzio is the author of Iterate: Run a Fast, Flexible, Focused Management Teamand his expertise on this front is well-documented.   Ed is the CEO of Group Harmonics, a company focused on helping companies create culture change, boost performance, and provide practical solutions to work place problems. His clients include not only HR pros, but business leaders as well, and his message across the board is all about iteration, adaptability, agility, and continuous learning.   Successful managers are the ones who can learn to move away from silos, wasted time and effort, unnecessary competition within teams, and who can embrace intelligent goal setting and attainment as well as effective management of resources.   That’s what Ed’s latest book is all about, teaching managers and business leaders how to iterate, and build and grow strong, successful teams. The premises there are really no different for HR pros than they are for other business leaders and managers within an organization.   In our conversation today we tackle challenges HR pros and other leaders face, and how to embrace an iterative mindset and management/leadership style. Whether you’re in HR or a senior executive, Ed’s advice is timely, relevant, and sure to add value to your strategies moving forward.

Bureaucracy. Silos. Sloooow decision-making. Is that what comes to mind when you think “corporate HR”? This week’s guest, Ed Muzio, says it doesn’t have to be that way. The author of “Iterate” tells us how HR organizations can incorporate agile thinking to move faster, make better decisions and be more people-focused.

Ed Muzio was running an industry forum for the first time. While he followed the advice he received he missed a few key elements and the meeting went off the rails. Ed was the one that needed to fix it but he didn’t know how.

Today we discuss an iterative organisation, the only kind of organization that can learn and adapt fast enough to keep up in today's world. For anyone running a team of managers, or advising someone who does, today we explore the fundamental behaviours that create iteration.  Our guest will explain how to implement them, and how to get the process started. Iterate defines what management really is and helps readers create a fast, flexible, focused management team that does it well. Our guest is recognised as one of the planet's clearest thinkers on management practice and provides a research-based blueprint for a management team that will take the next best step for the organization in any situation.  This show is for senior leadership, front line and middle management, and human resource executives and explores how to equip teams with both knowledge and practical skills so that they not only understand their own purpose but also perform that purpose well amidst ever-changing conditions.  It touches on how to create measurable business results for any management team, of any size, in any industry where complex work and frequent change are the norms. We explore: How to tear down the silos created by the typical Western approach to management How managers can manage other managers in an Iterative organization so that the whole organization is coordinated How to promote front line self-sufficiency How to successfully structure meetings to enable critical decision-making and ensure commitments are carried out How to help your reports give their reports insight into the ways their work impacts the big picture  CEO of Group Harmonics and award-winning author of “Iterate: Run a Fast, Flexible, Focused Management Team”, Ed Muzio More on Ed and the book here: https://iteratenow.com/

Iteration is the way effective organizations solve problems and achieve goals, particularly when solutions are complex and may be difficult to define in advance. Look for the highest-performing entrants in any given market. Chances are they are Iterating. Managers are the feedback system of an organization, and managers who continually ask themselves and their teams what the next logical step to be taken is – and then take it, learn from it and repeat the process – are Iterating. Ed Muzio is CEO of Group Harmonics and an award-winning three-time author. An expert in the scientific study of measuring and modifying human behavior, he is a sought-after consultant to business and industry worldwide and a popular media source. Ed discusses his new book, Iterate: Run a Fast, Flexible, Focused Management Team, and how he guides senior leadership and management in understanding the key behaviors that help an organization Iterate.
