A call for change is typically met with one of the following responses:

No doubt about it, change is a touchy subject. It implies that what you’re doing isn’t good enough or that you lack the knowledge to do it right – neither of which is good for the ego.

But change can be, dare we say, good? After all, without change, there is no growth.

And after talking with our guest, Josh Schwartz, we’re realizing that it’s not always the change itself that gives people pause. but how that change is brought about.

Josh dives into how he’s able to infiltrate a company as an outsider and make positive change (like tripling growth in three years). From small tasks like updating messaging to large initiatives like promoting widespread CRM adoption, Josh uses a very systematic and empathetic approach to earn the buy-in he needs to facilitate growth.

We talk about his approach to change management and the impact it can have on an organization.

And if he can do it as an outsider, you can certainly do it within your own organization.
