The power of habits in business

“The chains of habit are too light to be felt until they are too heavy to be broken”

Samuel Johnson

Every form of individual and corporate transformation is dominated by how much we are truly able to change our habits. Our life is the sum of the decisions taken over the years and the behavioural, emotional and cognitive habits which we have consolidated.

Our habits become our lifestyle inside and outside of the company.

However, a powerful, but frequently underestimated mixture of influence and resistance to change is often concentrated in business: our behaviour and results are guided by the routines we have established over the years, but we are strongly influenced by the habits of others, by the dominant beliefs in every context, by the physical environment that surrounds us, by relationships and by communications which are intertwined with the people we work with on a daily basis.

Business life and the way we obtain professional performance only truly changes when we learn to intervene effectively to change habits. Both our own habits and those of the people around us.

For this reason, the ability to recognise and design new routines in support of individual or business improvement projects is one of the skills that distinguishes Lean Leaders.

Lean Leaders are oriented towards the growth of both themselves and their organisation and they know that this does not happen by itself or by giving orders left and right or prescribing actions that must be completed uncritically, but by simply asking themselves how to build new and more effective individual and organisational habits.

In this workshop, reserved for entrepreneurs and managers, you will learn:

  • How to recognise and identify positive and negative business habits.
  • How to eliminate bad habits.
  • How to build new habits that support individual and corporate growth.
  • How to stimulate growth and development in people: See the Campari, Electrolux, Ethos Group and Streparava case studies.
