About this podcast

Most change initiatives fail for one reason: leaders ignore the emotional impact of change.

In this episode, I’m joined by John Fisher, creator of the Fisher Change Curve, to explain what employees actually experience during change—and what leaders must do to guide people through it.

We cover:

Why change feels like loss.
The emotional stages of change at work.
Why resistance happens and how to reduce it.
Practical ways leaders can lead change without breaking trust

If you’re leading organizational change, managing resistance, or navigating constant disruption, this conversation will reshape how you think about change management.

Change isn’t just operational, It’s personal.
