Just got interviewed for another episode of Workplace Radio. Available as from Thursday - podcasts.apple.com/dk/podcast/w... This time on the #ThreePercentRule and why it is business critical in #change. The hosts forgot to ask me who has the most influence in my family… It is my kids 😉

Informal > Formal. Understanding and working with the connections in the informal organization has NEVER been more critical to sustainable success. Do you know your informal organization? @innovisor.bsky.social

Sometimes I wonder what comes first. Burnout, bureaucracy or bottlenecks? www.innovisor.com/2023/08/28/b...

Preparing for an Executive talk on Thursday. What is your guess? #quiz #leadership #talk

First a storm called Amy, then loads of rain, followed by a low tide and sunshine in the afternoon. Finally, a few evening showers. Nature at its best today.

Imagine... you host an off-site but people fall back into the same silos & nothing changes. One client wanted something different - not just a nice dinner, but measurable impact. And that's what she got - 18% boost in connectivity in a day. This is what our Leadership Network Accelerator does!

Is a committed, connected, and aligned leadership team business critical? Yes! Why committed? Staff is 12% less committed than you, so quickly indifferent! Why connected? Otherwise info flows slowly, potentials are lost, and performance is low. Why aligned? - if not, you walk different ways.

Informal networks are drivers of performance & change! A Pharma Co. learned this the hard way: 79% of isolated employees left within 2 years. But when they engaged the trusted 3%, attrition dropped by 1/3. Want to use the power of informal networks? jeppehansgaard.gumroad.com/l/ThoughtLea...

They have the impact on their colleagues regardless… Your decision is simple. Do you want to know who the 3% are that collectively impact 90% of their colleagues? #ThreePercentRule @innovisor.bsky.social #leadership

Sunset at the track & field stadium

Fingers crossed that Moldova sides with Europe in its elections today 🙏

We all know this… and it is visible in the networks. If you see a future in the company you work for, you connect with colleagues.

"Find the 3% that impact ~90% of their 800 colleagues. Those that are key to activate and engage, if we are to be a success." Just kickstarted another project. In 2 wks, we know the names of the 3%, their sentiment, and how best to activate and engage them. 10xbetter than navigating in blindness.

Always happy to help & inspire with practical recommendations, experiences and ideas. Either face2face, online or through a recording… #leadership #change #OD #keynote

Jeannie knows. Working with the right people on the right people matters! If you are working with a region of 2-3 million people - or with a college with about 12,000 students. 3% drive the perceptions of 90% in both cases. #ThreePercentRule #Change x.com/jeppehansgaa...

Many organizations have several communities... and in the budgeting season they need to decide who should have focus - and who should not! This is where the #CommunityMapping of @innovisor.bsky.social becomes a leadership tool. To make sure you invest, where it is needed the most. #Leadership

The bridge builders, the boundary spanners, the connectors. Often praised… But also the most exposed to friction, tensions anf conflicts. In this case they are much more negative than the others, who work within the silos. Your formal structures must fit the real work! @innovisor.bsky.social

Dreamy this morning

From the morning run. Zoom in to see the rainbow.

Which one do you see in your org?🫆 A perfect equality where all are connected? An isolated tribe barely holding on? Or a silo organization stuck in its corners? Every organization has an informal network that makes or breaks culture and change. And when you see it, you can shape it!

Our Change Accelerator is not a magic wand🪄. It won’t make resistance disappear overnight. But a company facing a major transformation used it to uncover the 3%. When they were engaged, resistance disappeared and ideas spread. Curious who are the 3% in your org? Now is a good time to find out…

Organizations are made up of micro-cultures. @jeppehansgaard.bsky.social shares in Live from the Garden🪴 the different layers of influence: 👥 close connections 👥 friends-of-friends 👥 where things get blurry Beyond 150, you don’t share the same culture! #culture #changemanagement #leadership #ONA

@jdstraughan.com Thanks for the like. Just saw you are in Texas. Go there minimum once per year as two of my kids study in the DFW region

Thank you to Dr Hayley Lewis for including the #threepercentrule of @innovisor.bsky.social in this brilliant article. It was published a year ago, but I didn’t see it until today and it is as relevant now: halopsychology.com/2024/10/25/5... #influence #leadership #change

Spent a full sunday volunteering as a referee in long jump and javelin at the East Denmark Team Championships for 10-15 year olds. I can strongly recommend doing the same. As another volunteer said: “It is hard to find anything more life affirming!”

The surprising story about a long distance friendship that all started with one simple question. Check out my latest article: “Do You Want To Join Me?” www.linkedin.com/pulse/do-you...

How far would you let this go? You have change managers & Adoption Leads to maximize the adoption of AI agents. On the other hand, I can see in the @innovisor.bsky.social data that our informal networks shrink. We've fewer people to go to, and an increasing number of people are no longer seen.

We'll finally tell you the truth about our People Connectivity Accelerator… It’s not an UNO Reverse card! It won’t undo fragmentation. But it will identify the people who can rebuild connectivity and guide you on how to engage them. Contact us for the details (we may surprise you) 🎁

“Will you stay?” 🤷⚖️ It’s one of the most important questions organizations face. Our data shows employees who don’t see a future with their company are 23% less integrated in their networks. Retention isn’t just about paychecks. When people feel integrated into their network, they stay.

This is hilarious.

First month is for FREE… next time AI adoption is on the agenda.

Join the next Organizational Network Club conversation on Thursday 18 Sept at 9AM EDT, 3 PM (CET), and we'll discuss how far you need to go with your adoption, and are you ready for the trade-offs www.innovisor.com/organization...

When connectivity is the compensation for lack of guiding principles and structures —> low performance

Can you connect too much in an organization? Yes, but it rarely happens. When it does, I always learn. Today, it was ‘fear of doing wrong’ by deciding… leading to double checks of what had already been checked twice… And a lack of priority. Everything was equally important.

Nice morning run in Amersham, England.

Leaders, are you committed to your organization, VERY COMMITTED or maybe not so much? It matters a lot, since your org on average is 12% less committed than you. So if you are only committed, then you can expect your organization is about to jump ship. #SixChangeBlockers @innovisor.bsky.social

Leaders, your culture is on you. You cannot outsource the responsibility.

Objection: “I do not have time to talk with people” I promise you that you do not have the time NOT to talk with people. www.innovisor.com/2025/04/10/f...

In an org with 240 employees, the leadership group of 22 leaders only influenced the perceptions of about 40%, whereas the right group of employees (~3%) influenced 88%. If you want success with #change, it is not one or the other. You need to work with both groups.
