Influencing Change in Today’s Complex World with Seth Kahan

What does it really take to influence transformational change? Today we’re getting into the challenge of consulting and coaching in a very unstable world and how to influence leaders to buy-in and lead transformational change when the world is experiencing a historic wave of disruption – economic, political and institutional – unfolding all at once. To help us catalyze real leadership and organizational transformation, I’m bringing onto the show Seth Kahan. Seth is a recognized thought leader, strategist and expert in tackling complex global challenges. His work focuses on creating social movements and mobilizing collective action to solve intractable problems. In this episode, you’ll hear: How Seth Kahan went from street theater to the World Bank and what that taught him about leading large-scale change. The difference between incremental and transformational change, and why real transformation must be systemic. What consultants and leaders each bring to the table when driving meaningful change. Why influence starts with compassion, listening, and creating allies instead of trying to convince. How self-compassion and discernment help you lead change without losing your heart.

Reflect on your own influence style: Ask yourself, am I trying to convince people, or am I inviting them to join me as allies in change? Practice self-compassion: Notice where you’re hard on yourself during times of uncertainty and give yourself the same grace you’d offer a client. Revisit your client readiness checklist: Before taking on a big project, make sure the organization and leaders truly want change, not just quick fixes.
