About this listen


Legacy systems don’t crash companies—misaligned people do. In this episode, Marc Gasser talks with Füsun Wehrmann, ex Group CTO at InPost and former tech leader at Microsoft and Wayfair, about how culture, not architecture, is often the bottleneck in transformation.

She reveals how to untangle perceptions, build real change teams, and lead through ambiguity, especially with GenAI flooding the industry with both hype and fear.

You’ll learn how to:
✅ Identify root causes behind transformation stalls
✅ Avoid hero traps and create shared ownership
✅ Tackle GenAI resistance with psychological safety
✅ Reframe change as experimentation, not perfection
✅ Communicate differently across stakeholder groups

Whether you’re scaling legacy systems or introducing AI agents to a distributed team, this episode offers a human-first lens on tech change.
