Interview with Paul Avins, Entrepreneur and Business Coach about pivots

In this episode I have decided to switch things a bit and rather than interview another researcher, I thought I would get the view on pivots from an entrepreneur, business coach and investor to complement the interview I did with Regan Stevenson about entrepreneurial pivots.

Contrary to the common assumptions about employing overqualified people - that they will be bored, cause trouble and probably not stay around for long, it appears the research supports a much more positive set of outcomes in many cases.

Evidence-based Organisational Change

Evidence-based organisational change

Keywords: evidence-based practice, organisational change, change, evidence- based organisational change, evidence, evidence quality

Organisational change is a continually 'hot topic' within both the organisational and research communities with very good reason, as the rate of the pace of change increases year-on-year (currently estimated to be approximately 9% change increase year-on-year). And this is just in terms of new knowledge, scientific discoveries and technological advancements. Added to this, there is an almost measurable amount of social, political and market change ongoing at any particular time. At the time of writing the Covid_19 pandemic is creating unprecedented organisational and social change around the world.

But how much evidence is there for many of the ideas, methods, techniques, and tools that organisations, consultants and organisational change professionals use? Find out what the research says...
