The Hidden Politics of Change Leadership: Dan Pontefract
Dan Pontefract’s three big insights on modern change mastery and leading meaningful organizational transformation:
Managing up is a critical part of change leadership, and there are smarter ways to do it;
Culture isn’t “soft” — it’s the real work of change and can’t be delegated away; and
Purpose, balance, and generational shifts are forces shaping how transformation actually succeeds.
Dan, formerly CLO at Telus and SAP, didn’t just improve engagement — he shifted it dramatically and built transformation capability that lasted. Today, as an author and advisor, he’s helping senior leaders connect strategy, culture, and humanity in ways that stick.
If you’re steering change management or organizational transformation, this conversation speaks directly to your challenges. You’ll hear practical strategies for navigating executives who quietly resist, cultures that talk engagement but don’t live it, and projects that risk burning people out.
This is about change leadership that’s grounded, human, and effective.
