Back to today’s reality:
The coming decade is the first in history where:
- Disruptive change is continuous, not episodic
- Complexity increases quarterly, not annually
- New technologies reshape business models in months, not years
We can not manage our companies as if stability will return.
Because… It might never happen.
What is AchieV’s Perma-Change?
Perma-change is the new reality in which change is no longer a phase, a project, or a temporary disruption; it is the permanent operating condition for businesses.
In past decades, companies experienced change in cycles:
stability → disruption → adaptation → new stability.
Today, that cycle is gone.
Perma-change means:
- There is no return to “normal.”
The pace of change will never slow down again. - Every improvement has a shorter lifespan.
What gave you an advantage for years in the past, now gives you an advantage for months. - Disruption is continuous.
New competitors, technologies, regulations, and customer expectations emerge constantly. - Leadership must be adaptive, not reactive.
Leaders must make decisions with incomplete information and adjust quickly. - Organizations need built-in flexibility.
Systems, processes, and people must be able to pivot without collapsing.
It means we need to institutionalize transformation… if we still want to around in 2040!
What does this mean for you?
You need to act fast, be decisive and lead change:
- Old school re-organizations are not enough:
– AI integration in all Functions. Where possible replace the functions with AI-Assistents.
– Department sizes will need to be challenged.
– Money and time sinks need to be eliminated permanently. - Leadership styles need to change:
– Be decisive leaders who show the direction and paint the 2040 picture clearly. Lead the way.
– Be inspirational leaders who maximize the ambition and creativity of their personnel.
– Dare to empower and led others lead. Micromanagement needs to disappear. - Performance Management needs to becomes your DNA:
– Performances are visible, performance gaps are addressed and eliminated sustainable.
– Continuous Improvement dialogues are process focused and are not taken personal.
– Status quo is not accepted, everybody contributes to reaching the next level of perfection.
– Personal preferences dissapear and silos dissolve, getting better business results prevails.
