Leading Through Change: The Role of Respect for People
A Webinar on Strengthening Culture for Sustainable Performance
Then organizations face stalled performance or slow progress in transformation efforts, leaders often focus on processes, technology, and strategy. However, the real challenge is often cultural—how people engage, collaborate, and problem-solve together.
If your teams struggle with execution gaps, siloed decision-making, or resistance to change, the issue isn’t just what you’re doing—it’s how people are working together. Misalignment, disengagement, and cultural friction can stall even the most well-designed initiatives.
Join and special guest Scott Gauvin, Co-founder of the Respect for People Roadmap, for a discussion on how respect for people drives operational success. Learn practical ways to tackle cultural bottlenecks, strengthen execution, and lead through change with a people-centered approach.

Why Process Alone is Not Enough – The limitations of traditional CI approaches and how culture determines their long-term success.
