Introduction

As the pace of change accelerates in an age of disruption, leaders are looking for ways to keep up and step up to the challenges of advancing technology, economic uncertainty, shifting workplaces and roles, and the prolonged stress of the pandemic. Effective change leaders are more effective in recovering from crisis and are better able to create the kind of positive disruption that drives innovation. Yet change capability remains an elusive quality and critical skill gap for leaders, teams, and employees who struggle to not only anticipate, but also shape their future in an increasingly complex world. According to Gartner, Inc. employees’ and leaders’ change fatigue has doubled since 2019, with negative reactions to change -- such as burnout, frustration, or apathy – plummeting at precisely the time when more change is precisely what organizations need in order to reset, respond, and recover from prolonged crisis and stress.
