Described as “a craftsman of transformation,” Bud has dedicated his professional life to proving that change is always possible, even in the largest, most complex institutions on the planet.

Bud started his career as the Head of Technology at a venture-backed startup, and quickly found himself advising Fortune 500 executives on their technology and innovation efforts. But the barriers to change we saw across their organizations weren't technical. They were cultural and organizational. Inertia, politics, dysfunction, as well as plain fear, stopped good ideas from being explored or even heard. Meanwhile, traditional consultants saw change primarily as a communications exercise, and focused on grand plans, not the hard work of implementation.

In response, Bud became obsessed with the real mechanisms behind organizational change - the levers that actually provide new behaviors and shared conditions, and ultimately drive their adoption at scale. He founded NOBL in 2014 as an evidence-based and experimentation-forward approach to transformation, which has garnered truly remarkable results and attention for clients.

Conflict Managed is produced by Third Party Workplace Conflict Restoration Services and hosted by Merry Brown.
