Chris and Ian are joined by Dr Valeria Winkworth, People Consulting Director at EY, for a longer discussion about human-centred business transformation and change. Valeria first appeared on Workplace Geeks earlier this year as part of the second WORKTECH23 event special (called ‘three takes on change’) to talk about the first report from EY’s recent ‘Humans@Centre’ collaboration with Oxford University’s Saïd Business School, called ‘The future of transformation is human’ (2022).

We thought the topic was so important that we invited Valeria back. This episode revisits this report and the research behind it, then expands to include the next instalment from the collaborative team, called ‘Transformation Leadership: Navigating turning points’ (2024). It includes a discussion of the seminal Kübler-Ross ‘stages of grieving’ model, now co-opted into the canon of organisational change theory, as well as other collaborative approaches to change.

So, if you truly believe that people are your most valuable asset, this is an invaluable listen.

🤩 Please rate, review and recommend the show to help us spread the Workplace Geeks word - thank you! 🙌🏼
