    Say What They Can't Unhear

    KL149: Say What They Can't Unhear Tamsen Webster Master message designer and Author of “Say What They Can’t Unhear” Episode Summary **Change is inevitable—but successful change isn't.** Every leader faces the challenge of driving transformation, whether it's shifting organizational culture, implementing new strategies, or inspiring teams to embrace innovation. Yet most change initiatives fail not because of poor planning, but because of poor communication. Join host Eddie Turner on the Keep Leading!® Podcast as he sits down with Tamsen Webster, renowned message designer and author of "Say What They Can't Unhear." Tamsen reveals why traditional persuasion tactics fall short and shares her proven framework for creating messages that stick. In this episode, you'll discover: • Why rational arguments alone don't drive lasting change • How to identify the deep-seated beliefs that fuel resistance—and transform them into allies • The secret to crafting communications that people can't ignore or forget • Practical strategies for becoming the kind of change agent your organization needs As Tamsen puts it, lasting change happens when you align your message with what people already believe—then show them a new path forward. Don't just communicate change; make it irresistible. **Ready to say what they can't unhear? Listen now.** Bio Part message designer, part English-to-English translator, part magpie, Tamsen Webster helps leaders craft their case for large-scale change. In addition to her work in and for major organizations such as Harvard Medical School, Fidelity Investments, and Klaviyo, she’s a judge and mentor for the Harvard Innovation Labs, a professional advisor at the Martin Trust Center for MIT Entrepreneurship, and has spent over 10 years as the Idea Strategist for one of only nine legacy-level TEDx events in the world.

She lives in Boston with her husband, two sons, and two brindle Greyhounds, Hazel and Walnut.

One workplace. Endless possibilities—or potential chaos? For the first time in history, five distinct generations are working side by side: Traditionalists, Baby Boomers, Generation X, Millennials, and Generation Z. With a 50+ year age gap between the oldest and youngest employees, workplace tensions aren't just inevitable—they're already here. But what if generational diversity isn't a problem to solve, but a competitive advantage waiting to be unlocked?

We all value similar things like family, security, and fulfilling work." The key is learning to speak everyone's language. Ready to remix your leadership approach? Don't let generational differences divide your team—let them define your success.

    Leading Generative Change

    Janet Harvey Keynote Speaker | Award-Winning Author | ICF MCC & Master Generative Coach | Director of Coaching Education Episode Summary In today's rapidly evolving world, the ability to lead change isn't just helpful—it's essential. But what distinguishes leaders who react to change from those who actively create it? In this episode of the Keep Leading!® Podcast, I explored this question with Janet M. Harvey, who introduced a powerful concept: generative change. Rather than simply managing disruption, Harvey shows how effective leaders can harness tension as a driving force for transformation and growth. In this episode, Harvey breaks down her innovative Generative Wholeness™ framework and offers practical strategies for developing this essential leadership skill. Drawing insights from her book "From Tension to Transformation: A Leader's Guide to Generative Change," she reveals how to transition from defensive leadership to a more proactive, creative approach that transforms challenges into catalysts for success. Whether you're facing organizational upheaval or simply want to enhance your leadership skills, this conversation offers actionable tools for becoming the kind of leader who doesn't just navigate change—but creates it. Bio Janet M. Harvey is the best-selling author of two award-winning leadership and coaching books: “From Tension to Transformation: A Leader’s Guide to Generative Change” and “Invite Change: Lessons from 2020, The Year of No Return.” She is the CEO of inviteCHANGE, a human development organization that specializes in generative learning and coaching, shaping a world where people love their work life. As a visionary in the global professional coaching industry, Janet Harvey is an International Coaching Federation Master Certified Coach and Accredited Educator who has engaged leaders, teams, and global enterprises to foster change that sustains well-being and excellence in performance. As Janet shares, “Coaching in its many forms has at its root the effect of awakening consciousness and doing so in a highly accelerated fashion that improves productivity and financial outcomes while also generating a healthier workplace climate.” Janet Harvey leverages her executive and entrepreneurial experience to nurture leaders in Generative Wholeness™, their signature generative coaching and learning process, designed to be future-fit.
