Leading Change from Within: The Power of Transformational Leadership
Leadership is being tested in real time. As organizations navigate AI adoption, remote work, and constant structural change, many leaders are discovering that strategy alone isn’t enough. People are asking deeper questions about purpose, trust, and what it really means to show up for teams when uncertainty is the norm. In a world where burnout is rising and engagement is fragile, how leaders lead has never mattered more.
So what does it actually look like to lead change from the inside out—and how do leaders create impact that lasts beyond their presence?
That’s the focus of this episode of Waypoints Unlocked, hosted by Randall René, founder of Waypoint 33. Randall is joined by Brandee Brown, CEO and founder of Magnify Success, for an honest, wide-ranging discussion on transformational leadership, mentorship, and the human side of organizational change. Together, they explore how leading with authenticity, compassion, and courage can unlock potential in people and teams alike.
