Chris has been designing and orchestrating the delivery of transformational change for over 35 years. The past 25 years he has been privileged to lead a number of assignments across different industries, in the UK, USA and Europe.

Transformation is a capability, not simply a programme.
The Transformation Leaders Podcast is for the people responsible for making transformation happen.
Hosted by Tony Lockwood — transformation leader, author of the Transformation Leaders Body of Knowledge (TLBoK) and founder of The Transformation Leaders Hub — the podcast explores what it really takes to lead complex organisational transformation.
Because transformation rarely fails through a lack of methodologies, frameworks or technology.
The harder challenge is making good decisions when the answer isn't obvious.
Through candid conversations with experienced transformation leaders and Tony's own perspectives from more than 25 years working in change and transformation, we explore the realities behind transformation that don't always make it onto the programme plan.
Leadership and decision-making.
People and culture.
Operating models.
Digital, data and AI.
Governance and execution.
The difficult trade-offs, uncomfortable conversations and judgement calls that ultimately determine whether transformation succeeds.
No silver bullets.
No twelve-step formula for transformation success.
Just practical thinking, real experience and different perspectives designed to help you **think better, make better decisions and build stronger transformation capability.**
If you're a CIO, COO, Transformation Director, Programme Director, Change Leader or simply someone responsible for making significant organisational change happen, this podcast is for you.
The Transformation Leaders Podcast
Better Thinking. Better Decisions. Better Transformation.
From The Transformation Leaders Hub — bringing together People, Knowledge, Support and Capability for transformation leaders.
