Ever get asked for proof that your transformation is working? 

While the rest of the business obsesses over dashboards and metrics, transformation leaders are often left with... vibes? 

Stacey Taylor, Vice President of Implementation & Change at Visa, has cracked the code on measuring the "unmeasurable" in change initiatives. She shares their practical three-pillar framework connecting individual performance to organizational outcomes, using real examples from Agile and Gen AI rollouts. She reveals creative approaches for gathering meaningful data without survey fatigue and why measuring productivity requires looking at speed, effort, and quality together. 

You’ll particularly love her game-changing "snack strategy" for keeping impatient executives satisfied while the real results cook!

This episode is a must-listen for transformation leaders tired of relying on gut feeling to track progress.
