126. The Art of Change Communication with Mel Loy and Prina Shah

Ways to Change the Workplace with Prina Shah

Show Summary:
I had the pleasure of interviewing my good friend Mel Loy, a global expert in change communication. Mel recently published her book, "Change Isn't Hard: A Practical Playbook for People-Centred Change Communication," which fills a significant gap in the market by focusing on effective communication strategies during organizational change.

This is a MUST LISTEN to episode!
