About this Podcast:

Everything about work is changing. Real stories from leaders who've navigated it, and what it takes to navigate it yourself. Each week I sit down with a leader who has lived through a big change: a career reinvention, a company transformation, a bet that could have gone either way. Guests have included Mark Cuban, Gen. David Petraeus, Charlene Li, and Brian Solis, along with founders, executives, and experts from across industries. I'm Michael J. López, a LinkedIn Top Voice on change and transformation. I help Fortune 500 companies and their leaders through transformation, and I'm the author of CHANGE. Each conversation covers a critical business topic in our rapidly changing world, and where it fits, I connect it to the research on how people actually change. New episodes every Tuesday, recorded live on LinkedIn and YouTube.
