The #1 Thing Holding You Back from Transformational Leadership

How can empathy and collaboration transform not just leadership but entire organisations post-M&A? Discover the answer in this episode with Sam Gupta, CEO of ElevatIQ and host of WBS Rocks. Sam shares his single best piece of advice — "you pick a lot more with honey than vinegar" — and how it has shaped his approach to stakeholder management and ERP transformations. Guest Introduction and Insights: Sam Gupta is a leading voice in ERP transformations and digital advisory services. With over 20 years of experience and 200 engagements under his belt, he knows what it takes to navigate the complexities of mergers, acquisitions, and post-merger integrations. In this episode, Sam discusses how empathetic leadership and strategic collaboration can drive finance and business transformation, ensuring smoother transitions and robust stakeholder buy-in. Key Takeaways: "Honey vs. Vinegar": Why empathy and patience are more effective than confrontation in business relationships. ERP in M&A: How ERP systems provide a single view of data, ensure compliance, and unlock efficiencies during M&A. Perception as Reality: Why understanding stakeholder perceptions is critical for successful transformations. Practical Tips for Leaders: How to apply "honey" in challenging scenarios, especially on platforms like LinkedIn, where communication nuances matter. Relevance to How2-Change: ERP and finance transformations are pivotal in M&A, providing a single set of controls, streamlining operations, and fostering compliance. At How2-Change, we specialise in post-merger integration and private equity transformation, ensuring these transitions drive value while leaving organisations more capable and confident. Sam’s insights underscore the importance of empathy and strategy — principles at the heart of our approach.
