About Tammy

Dr. Tammy Watchorn, known as the "Change Ninja," is an educator, facilitator, coach, author, and keynote speaker with a focus on change management, neuroscience, and behaviours related to change.

Her approach to change management, focusing on human elements over rigid processes, has made her a unique voice in the field, especially appealing to those looking for more organic, less disruptive ways to implement change in both personal and professional settings.

Initially, Dr. Watchorn worked in the public sector, particularly in health care, leading projects and complex organizational change programs. She transitioned from a traditional career path to focus more on innovative ways of working, inspired by her experiences and teachings from Prof. Eddie Obeng.

Dr. Watchorn's approach to change management is encapsulated in her "Change Ninja" persona, emphasizing stealth, strategic, and human-focused methods over traditional, process-heavy management styles. This approach aims at making change less confrontational and more aligned with human behaviours and motivations.

She authored "The Change Ninja Handbook," which is described as a gamified, choose-your-own-adventure book designed to teach change management through interactive scenarios. This was followed by "The Change Ninja Returns," where she applies her change management techniques to personal life challenges, using herself as a case study.

Her philosophy revolves around focusing on people rather than processes, understanding and leveraging human motivations, and adapting to change rather than resisting it. She advocates for a 'Just in Time' learning approach where results are immediate and repeatable.

Dr. Watchorn is recognized for her engaging and interactive keynotes, where she shares tools for managing change, understanding stakeholder preferences, and leading transformations in a way that's both effective and less resistant.

Her work has been recognized in the Business Book Awards, and she's known for her innovative training methods, which include virtual 3D environments designed around human interactions rather than technology for technology's sake.

Her journey into change management was partly driven by personal life challenges, which she turned into a learning opportunity, further enriching her teachings and writings.

This week I have part 2 of my interview with Glenn Parker, The Positive Influence Guy,

Glenn, the only child of two hard-working parents, grew up on the streets of New York City. He played street games like stickball, punchball, 3-box baseball and Johnny-on-the Pony with his buddies. He loved the competitive aspects of sports and the opportunities it provided for leadership. As he got older and taller, he moved on to competitive schoolyard and recreational league basketball.

All these experiences came together and evolved when he attended an 8-week summer camp in upstate New York. Glenn especially loved the camp season finale when the entire camp of several hundred youngsters was divided into two teams for a week of Olympic-style competition in all manner of sports from baseball to archery to swimming. At age 15 Glenn was selected to serve as captain of one team where led a group of boys that ranged from five to 15 years of age requiring him to provide leadership in the form of support, motivation and positive influence to a varied group.

In high school and later in college, Glenn played varsity sports where he learned the values of hard work, practice and collaboration. The sum total of these experiences helped Glenn learn that when he worked hard --- whether in sports or in the classroom ---- he succeeded.

He took those values into his work life. After working for several organizations, Glenn and a colleague started a small business as training and organizational development consultants. The business took Glenn to all parts of the US giving him the opportunity to work with a diverse group of people working in a wide variety of industries and occupations. During this time, he narrowed the focus of the consulting to building effective teams and creating team-based organizations.

Glenn always loved to write --- his first article was published while he was still in graduate school --- but it took a while for him to work up the courage and confidence to write a book. With the encouragement of Peter Block, Jossey-Bass published his first book, Team Players and Teamwork in 1990 that went on to be a best-seller. The book included a self-assessment survey which was subsequently published as a separate booklet and went on to sell more than one million copies as the Parker Team Player Survey. Many books and leader guides followed including another best-seller, Cross-Functional Teams: Working with Allies, Enemies and Other Strangers. His most recent book, co-authored with his son, Michael is Positive Influence: The Leader Who Helps People Become Their Best Self (HRD Press, 2020).

A graduate of City College of New York with a B.A., Glenn also holds an M.A. from the University of Illinois and has studied for the doctorate at Cornell. He also studied at the University of Oslo.

Outside of work Glenn has always been on the front lines of political and social causes as well as charitable issues such as cancer. He is a cancer survivor and long-time volunteer with the American Cancer Society. He co-founded Run for Dad, an annual event that draws some 1,500 people and is designed to raise awareness about the dangers of prostate cancer and funds for cancer research.

Glenn and his wife, Judy, live in central New Jersey. They are parents of three grown children and grandparents to six wonderful grandchildren all of whom live nearby. Judy and Glenn share of love of travel having visited numerous places around the world to enjoy art, culture, history and good food.
