Marti Smye, PhD "Within a climate of organizational change are passions and energies that arise around the parties involved. It's important to harness these passions and energies, bring them together, and align them so they go in the same direction. We know where there is the greatest potential for synergy, as well as for disruption. At Leaders Matter, we capitalize on strengths, manage the risks inherent in conflict, and identify noteworthy leader behaviors and organizational practices. We use these behaviors to positively influence the resulting change. Our goal throughout the change process is to maintain morale and productivity, and of course, to retain talent. We are dedicated to this goal, and focus on adaptation to change for the future benefit and growth of the organization and everyone in it."
