Take a Human-Centered Approach to Change
Take 3 human-led actions to drive meaningful change
Change is a constant in today’s workplace, but according to Qualtrics' 2025 Employee Experience Trends Report, it’s also a leading source of unnecessary pressure on employees. Over a third of employees feel weighed down by the rapid pace of change, shifting strategies, and economic uncertainty—all of which can erode engagement, wellbeing, and retention.
The solution? Leadership that actively supports employees through change, rather than simply pushing through it.
The Qualtrics report outlines three key action strategies that align powerfully with Leadership Coaching:
Understand what it takes for employees to do their jobs: Leaders often assume they know what their teams need. Coaching challenges this assumption, helping leaders develop active listening skills and shift from reactive to empathetic, intentional leadership.
Listen, understand, act: Employees don’t just want change communicated; they want to co-create solutions. Through coaching, leaders build the ability to ask their teams and peers better questions, facilitate meaningful conversations, and take aligned action.
Empower leaders and managers: Change fatigue is real, especially when leaders don’t feel equipped to manage it. Executive Coaching provides a space to develop resilience, emotional intelligence, and strategic clarity, so leaders don’t just survive change—they drive it.
Sustainable change isn’t about forcing adaptation—it’s about guiding people through it. When leaders invest in coaching, they invest in creating workplaces where change is met with clarity, not chaos.
