Built For Value

Built to Last: Why Smart Change Still Fails (and What to Do About It)

You spotted the problem.
You built the fix.
Everyone agreed it worked.

But the moment you stepped away… it vanished.

In this episode of Built for Value, we explore why even the best solutions don’t always stick — and what it really takes to build systems that survive beyond rollout. From fragile fixes undone by ego, to tools that fail because they weren’t co-created, we unpack why “better” isn’t enough unless it's embedded.

You’ll learn:

  • Why change fails quietly when no one owns it

  • The difference between co-creation and consultation

  • How to anchor systems against reversion

  • How to design for resistance, not just results

  • What happens when Design Thinking meets Systems Thinking

If you've ever watched your hard work quietly disappear, this one’s for you.

🎧 Listen in — and discover how to make change that lasts.
