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.

Dr. Alaina Beaver, ServiceNow's Global Head of Accessibility, is our guest on the podcast to discuss the latest developments in accessibility. Dr. Beaver explains that the world of accessibility is constantly evolving, and it's not a one-time task, but rather an ongoing process. She highlights that ServiceNow has made significant progress in accessibility, particularly with regards to conformance standards.

Publicly, ServiceNow has committed to aligning with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 AA, the most stringent guidelines globally for accessibility conformance. This is an upgrade from the previous standard, WCAG 2.1 AA, which is still adhered to by many legislations worldwide. Dr. Beaver notes that the new standard, WCAG 2.2 AA, was released recently, and it will take time for legislation to catch up.

What’s the real difference between innovation and transformation—and why do so many leaders get it wrong? 🤔

In this episode, Kat and Pete break it down with simple analogies (including The Wizard of Oz 👠), real-world examples like Kodak, Netflix, and Uber, and a few laughs about gym memberships and ruby slippers along the way.

Key insights you’ll learn:

💡 Why innovation = new ways of doing things (products, services, customer experience) 
💡 Why transformation = the cultural, process, and technology shifts that make innovation stick
💡 The dangers of “innovation without transformation” (and vice versa) 
💡 Practical tips for executives: how to measure success, empower people, and balance both for sustainable growth

Whether you’re a CEO, business leader, or transformation strategist, this conversation will help you rethink how to drive change, embrace AI, and build future-ready organizations.
