About this listen
January 14, 2026: Change takes far longer than leaders expect—and that gap is where frustration, failure, and missed opportunity live. In this episode, I break down why organizations struggle to move at the pace of the world around them, even when the need for change is obvious.
We explore the real blockers slowing transformation: legacy technology, bad data, bureaucracy, internal politics, and cultures built for a different era. AI promises speed and intelligence, but without clean data, modern systems, and the courage to rethink how decisions get made, it only amplifies existing problems.
I also unpack how the CHRO role has fundamentally changed. Today's CHRO is the CEO of people—responsible not just for HR, but for aligning talent, culture, technology, and foresight with business outcomes.
Finally, we challenge the idea that employee experience is an "HR thing." It's not. It's a shared system co-created by leaders and employees alike. Building a future-ready organization isn't about quick wins—it's a long game that requires persistence, discipline, and the willingness to do the hard work of real transformation.
