In this episode, leadership and change expert Tim Rhode joins us to explore why all progress requires change—and why so many leaders still struggle to lead it effectively. Drawing on decades of experience helping organizations navigate transformation, Tim shares practical insights on how to overcome resistance, communicate with clarity, and build a culture that embraces growth. He breaks down his simple, actionable “Changing Lanes” framework for guiding teams through change with confidence and connection. Whether you’re a manager facing organizational shifts or a leader rethinking your approach, this conversation will inspire you to see change not as a threat, but as the pathway to progress.
Key Themes
- All progress requires change — but most leaders still underestimate how to align people to it.
- Modern change leadership: Top-down mandates no longer work; engagement and culture now drive success.
- Communication truths: Context and meaning are essential — “communication is not sending; it’s understanding.”
- Reducing resistance: Recognize effort, add purpose, and involve even the skeptics early on.
- Culture as the foundation: Make adaptability a shared value from hiring through belonging.
- Simple tools: Tim Rhodes “Changing Lanes” framework translates complex change models into four easy steps.
- Mindset shift: Think like a “prompt engineer” — give your people as much clarity and context as you’d give AI.
