Lean Change Management

In this episode Sarika Kharbanda sits down with Geeta Prakash, founder of Parama Naturals, to explore how everyday experiences, life's unexpected known and unknown challenges, and the wisdom of ancient traditions can spark powerful change. From navigating allergies and corporate life to discovering the healing power of #turmeric and mindful selfcare, Geeta shares her journey of weaving health, heritage, and sustainability into a modern wellness brand Parama Naturals. They unpack what it means to create change that heals from inside out, and how reconnecting with nature's simplicity daily can inspire leaders, managers, and change makers alike to pause, reflect and re-align. This conversation is such that reminds us that sometimes, the biggest shifts begin not in boardrooms, but in the quiet intentional choices we make for ourselves.  View the Videocast of this Episode at this link on YouTube Subscribe to YouTube channel

In this episode of Perspectives of Change, we look at yoga not just as a practice on the mat, but as a lens for transformation in life through the journey of our guest Tahera Dashti. Tahera touches on the student-teacher relationship, the role of props, and how online vs offline classes shape experiences. We also look at when anyone could begin yoga, the excuses or the internal blockers that hold people back, and what it takes to just begin. Presence, discipline, courage, overcoming our own blockers are as vital in leading teams as they are in practising yoga. How can you reach Yoganjai?

What do you do when everyone looks to you for answers—and you’ve got none? In a world where change is constant and complexity is the norm, many leaders and facilitators still carry the unspoken burden of needing to “know it all.”  But here’s the truth: in complex environments, expert certainty can actually get in the way of meaningful progress. It’s not your job to fix everything. It’s your job to make it possible for the right conversations to happen—and the right people to lead them.

Welcome to “Crafting Environments for Distributed Teams” in conversation with Jim Benson and Mark Kilby. Distributed teams have been around for a long time. I’ve been working with globally distributed teams since around 1999. I’ve personally witnessed firsthand the evolution of distributed teams and the challenges and opportunities these have presented along the years.I’ve recently had conversations with other practitioners and leaders who focus on 2 key things. 1. Managing the system and not micro-managing people, 2. Intentionally crafting the right environment for their teams to be successful. For teams to be successful, the environment has to enable that. It’s about continuously improving the whole system and not just a 1 time thing. Today, in conversation with practitioners and thought-leaders Jim Benson and Mark Kilby I’m hoping to unravel how they enable crafting environments for distributed teams.
