How do we lead real transformation, the kind that sticks, in organisations wired for comfort?
In this special episode of Transformation 2.0®, we welcome strategy and transformation expert Taural Rhoden as a regular co-host. Together, Chamara and Taural dive into the uncomfortable realities of change, why organisations resist it, how leaders can navigate it, and why individual growth is the real engine of business transformation.
From the boardroom to the front line, transformation isn’t just about new systems or strategies - it’s about helping people make sense of uncertainty and take action when the future feels unclear.
If you’re a change leader, transformation consultant, or executive navigating complexity, this episode will give you frameworks, language, and inspiration to lead with more clarity and confidence.
Key Takeaways:
✅ Real transformation requires people to get uncomfortable and stay there
✅ Change fails when we treat it as a tech project instead of a people challenge
✅ Organisational homeostasis is real: success depends on disrupting the status quo
✅ Courageous leadership isn’t about rank - it’s about conviction
✅ The best change agents use experiments, not overhauls, to learn and scale
✅ Resistance is insight in disguise; treat it as information, not defiance
✅ A learning mindset will be the #1 skill for future-fit leaders
