Nine leaders with titles influence 70% of their organization. Nine employees without titles influence 93%. The difference? Your formal leaders mostly influence each other. Your informal influencers connect the groups that don't overlap.

“CHANGE does not happen until the RIGHT people are COMMITTED.”
Just gave a virtual talk to a global crowd from Indonesia to USA/Canada.
Connect if of interest.

Yes! Again! Real influence doesn’t come from hierarchy.
This study doesn’t talk about the #ThreePercentRule … but it is all over it 🤔 They confirm it with MRI scans. We confirm it with meteor analytics.
#informalinfluence beats #formalinfluence

Change doesn’t fail because people resist, but because leaders stay at a distance. 🔭
When leaders are visibly in the work, change becomes shared, not delegated.
That is when people commit.

Most ecosystem strategies fail because leaders focus on #structures instead of #people.
If you are responsible for economic development, here are 3 questions you must answer to succeed!👇

Leaders influence about half of what happens.
But a small group, around 3%, influence up to 90% of how change is perceived.
In a world where transformation is continuous, it’s important to know who has the real influence.

The informal beats the formal, when it comes to releasing change, productivity, and retention potential…
Also at the factory floor, in rural communities, or at sea. The most powerful force is always the trusted peers.

Meet Adam & Ellen. They're in the 3% of employees who shape how 89% of their company thinks. Their influence beats formal leadership - and spreads fast through networks.
Knowing WHO isn't enough. Know WHAT, WHY, and HOW to engage them! That's what the #ThreePercentRule and #sixChangeBlockers are
Commitment beats engagement, when it comes to change success. When you are committed, you are willing to 'go the extra mile'.
In this case the 3% of informal leaders are highly committed, but the leaders are not.
Focus on them first.

Traditional change management fails because it treats organizations like machines. This video explains a different approach: the #ThreePercentRule - a mathematical algorithm showing how change actually spreads through a small group of people within human systems.

The right 3% of employees matter more to change success, than most people are aware. If they are in the know, and committed... then support for your change ripples fast from them throughout the informal networks.
Here an org with ~500 people
#ThreePercentRule #Change @innovisor.bsky.social
3% impact ~90%, if identified with right method: Peer-to-peer identification & algorithm to maximize impact with smallest group of people.
Not by top-down or self-identification or by a group in a room mapping networks. A random identification of 25% produces better results

The #ThreePercentRule strikes again.
In a 425 person org spread across 4 countries, the right 3% of people impact 87%.
They have that impact regardless, so why risk not activating and engaging them?
#change #leadership @innovisor.bsky.social
The worst you can do to someone's informal influence is calling them a talent. In the same second, it is out in the open, the informal influence evaporates.
It is an us & them dilemma.
Don't make your informal influencers part of 'Them'.

Does informal influence travel at sea? Yes!
This case shows influence networks across 50 vessels in Asia and Europe incl the seafarers off duty and onshore.
Notice influence travels across vessels, but Asia and Europe is disconnected.
3% still impact 90%.

“‘Name of our sponsor’ and his CEO thinks it is the most amazing thing they have done in their entire career.”
Happy to receive this feedback from major US company. They did put our insights immediately into work after receiving them.
#ThreePercentRule strikes again. @innovisor.bsky.social

Many leaders emphasize the critics, listen to the talkers and forget the doers.
A better way is the other way around.
Work with the 3% that impact 90%.

Just got interviewed for another episode of Workplace Radio.
Available as from Thursday - podcasts.apple.com/dk/podcast/w...
This time on the #ThreePercentRule and why it is business critical in #change.
The hosts forgot to ask me who has the most influence in my family… It is my kids 😉
Find them, engage them,
make sense hand in hand,
or watch your grand strategy
sink in the sand.
Today we Poetry Day celebrate,
but change fiascos we truly hate.
So here’s our rhyme, rough at best,
let’s hope our insights do the rest. 😉

They have the impact on their colleagues regardless…
Your decision is simple.
Do you want to know who the 3% are that collectively impact 90% of their colleagues?
#ThreePercentRule @innovisor.bsky.social #leadership
Jeannie knows.
Working with the right people on the right people matters! If you are working with a region of 2-3 million people - or with a college with about 12,000 students.
3% drive the perceptions of 90% in both cases.

Thank you to Dr Hayley Lewis for including the #threepercentrule of @innovisor.bsky.social in this brilliant article.
It was published a year ago, but I didn’t see it until today and it is as relevant now: halopsychology.com/2024/10/25/5...

💡The 3% - a small group of individuals that collectively drive the sense-making of 90% of their colleagues.💡
This group has a stronger impact than leaders, which only impacts 50%.
The only way to succeed with change is working directly with these people!
#ThreePercentRule #informalnetworks
Too often, change fails because it’s done to people...
One company decided work smarter with the #ThreePercentRule. They found the 3% and listened.👂
At first, they were skeptical. But when their concerns were heard, they became supporters.
And that’s how change fatigue turned into a movement.
It’s easy to dismiss “just 3%” of your people.
But if that 3% can #influence 90% of the rest, they are your entire organization.
They shape the coffee and watercooler talk. They’re your secret weapon for #change success!
Ignore them and you might feel like 100% are against you.
