LIVE FORUM on Thursday, 28 May 2026, 12.00-12.45 CET
Have you ever had all the data... and still stayed silent in the room?
Have you watched a change initiative drift because the real conversation never happened?
Do you know exactly what needs to be said... and find yourself saying something safer instead?

Not another webinar.
A forum for people leading real change.
This is a live, interactive 45-minute virtual forum - real conversation, grounded insights, and one practical tool you can use the very next day.
Change Does Matter: When Knowing Isn't Enough explores one of the most common and costly patterns in organisational change: leaders who know what needs to be said, and don't say it. Not because they lack courage - but because the moment is never quite right, the data gets reframed, and the real issue quietly stays unaddressed. Until the change initiative stalls.
The Change Does Matter Forum is your two-monthly space to pause, connect with peers, and explore how to lead change with more clarity, skill, and confidence.
Three things you will leave with.
The cost of silence. What actually happens to your change initiative every month the real conversation doesn't take place - and why leaders who know better still delay.
A 3-step script. A practical, change-leadership framework for surfacing the real issue without triggering defensiveness - designed for the high-stakes moments that matter most.
Reading the room. How to tell whether the moment is right to push forward, pause, or reframe - specific to change management situations, not generic communication advice.
A real case to work with. We'll explore a realistic scenario your avatar will recognise immediately - and use it to make the framework concrete and immediately applicable.
This forum is for you if you lead change - at any level.
Created for mid- to senior professionals navigating organisational change, including:
- Change leaders and transformation leads
- HR, OD and communications professionals
- Project and programme managers
- Senior managers and directors
- Change practitioners and consultants
- Anyone influencing change without full authority
I know what needs to be said in that meeting. I just keep finding a reason not to say it quite yet.
If that feels familiar, this is your space.
45 minutes. Very few slides. Real dialogue.
-
I open with a short story from the field - a realistic scenario that will feel immediately familiar to anyone leading change.
-
We explore the cost of silence together through a quick poll and honest group reflection - you'll see you are not alone in this.
-
I introduce the 3-step script framework, grounded in change leadership - not generic communication advice.
-
You connect in small peer discussions to apply the framework to a real situation from your own context.
-
We close with your one action - the specific conversation you will approach differently this week.
No prep required. Just show up ready to think.
