Want BIG Change? Implement Backwards!

Most change efforts don’t fail because the idea is bad—they fail because of how they’re implemented. Traditional top-down change models often lead to resistance, frustration, and disengagement. But what if you flipped the script? In this episode, I introduce reverse implementation, a strategy that engages frontline staff from the start, leading to smoother rollouts, faster adoption, and stronger buy-in. I’ll share why starting with a proposal instead of a directive makes all the difference, and how involving the right people early can eliminate roadblocks before they even appear. You’ll also hear a real-world example of how I used this approach to successfully overhaul maternity workflows without pushback. Plus, I’ll break down exactly how you can apply this method in your own leadership, even when dealing with top-down mandates. If you’ve ever struggled to implement change without resistance, this episode is for you.
