Driving Change When You Don’t Have Agency w Sinikka Waugh

How do I create change in my organization when I don’t have the authority to make it happen? Whether you are trying to kick off an Agile Transformation or introduce some other type of change that will impact your organization beyond your team and/or pay grade, creating change when you don’t feel empowered to do so is not an easy thing. My colleague Jeff Howey and I frequently get questions around this topic in the classes we teach so we invited Sinnika Waugh to join us and share some ideas about ways to initiate change when your inner voice, (or the org chart), is telling you that ain’t your gig. Sinikka Waugh is the Founder of Your Clear Next Step, an organization that provides training, coaching, and support to organizations and individuals with the ultimate goal of offering people a better workday so that when that day is over they are better prepared to truly show up and co-create a better experience at home and in their communities. She is also a PMP and the former VP of Marketing and Communications for the Central Iowa PMI Chapter. In this episode of the podcast, Sinikka joins Jeff Howey and me to help address the question of “How do I create change when I lack agency?” Contacting Sinikka Web: https://www.yourclearnextstep.com Even Better Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/4pQoHG1EfT8mqExSIOOmXb LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sinikkawaugh/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/yourclrnxtstep Contacting Jeff Email: Jeff.howey@leadingagile.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffhowey/
