You can buy the best platform, hire the best consultants, and build the best plan - but if your leadership is flaky and your culture is toxic, all you’ve upgraded is your failure rate.

In this episode of The Change Agents, Kat and Pete unpack why culture is the operating system of every transformation -and why leadership is the version update that determines whether change sticks or stalls. From “change theatre” to genuine leadership, trust, and vulnerability, this one’s a must-listen for anyone leading digital or AI-driven transformation in 2025.

The podcast where work flows, buzzwords go, and digital transformation gets the side-eye it sometimes deserves. In each episode, we chat with the change makers, risk takers, and quietly brilliant minds behind real change – no filters, no fluff, just the good stuff.

Expect tales of automation magic, AI mishaps, platform glow-ups, and the occasional hot take on why legacy systems should come with hazard pay. It’s sharp, a little weird, and totally worth your coffee break. (Or wine break – we won’t judge. In fact, we’ll probably join you!)

This is transformation – with better banter.
