They dive into:

- The clarity, insights and peace a sabbatical can give and how it helps Prachi in her daily change management work with her clients

- The positive movement Prachi and Judith have both witnessed in their change management careers with the discipline being considered as a crucial success factor and seat at the table at the beginning of a transformation program rather than towards the end

- The integration of AI in the field, what deliverables it specifically can be used for and while AI in the change management field is certainly an asset, keep protecting the most valuable asset you and others have - your brain

- Prachi's advice to change practitioners starting out in the field and her advice to fellow millennial change practitioners
