About this episode

Why are quick fixes to organisational or business issues are so alluring yet problematic?  Discover the reasons why we tend to focus on short-term thinking instead of doing the harder graft required to come up with deeper, lasting solutions. Whether you’re a leader or a change agent or someone who’s just interested in what makes us tick, I hope this conversation will help you rethink how to approach complex challenges.

I’m joined by Steve Hearsum, an experienced organizational consultant, coach, and author of No Silver Bullet: Bursting the Bubble of the Organizational Quick Fix. With over 20 years of experience, Steve specializes in helping leaders and change practitioners navigate the human side of transformation, focusing on building sustainable change rather than falling for quick-fix solutions. Described as “the right kind of fly in the ointment,” Steve challenges conventional thinking to help clients stretch beyond “better sameness.”
