“Workplace sentiment during a large-scale change” is incredibly vast. How do you break that down into actionable groups of people you can work with and influence? Join Dr. Polydefkis Loukopoulos, Chairman and Managing Director at Signify, and Nellie Wartoft as they explore the differences between champions, soldiers, rebels, and saboteurs. You’ll learn how to recognize these different groups and influence how they process & react to different change initiatives.

It’s June, 2022, and the 116-year-old Kellogg Company has just announced that it will be splitting into two companies - later called Kellanova and WK Kellogg. This is the story of the 18 months that followed that announcement, through to the NYSE listing in October 2023. It’s a story of incredible leadership, of trust and authenticity, and of first-class change activation with a people-first mindset. Because as Kellogg assured its employees during this period of major change, “a lot of things might be changing, but one thing that will not change is our investment in you.”
