Big challenges. Real conversations. Human insights.
Does transformation only mean strategy, decks, and timelines? In reality, it’s messy, high-stakes, and deeply human.
Frontline Insights is a podcast series on the realities of business transformation.
Grounded in Blue Skies thought leadership, this podcast features candid conversations with our leaders who’ve navigated high-stakes change. It explores the pressures, tradeoffs, and human dynamics behind moving big work forward.
Expect real stories, experienced perspectives, and practical lessons on turning strategy into results.
Hear straight from our experts who’ve been in the trenches.
What do the Real Housewives and a corporate ERP rollout have in common? More than you think.Â
In this episode, Kenis Folk sits down with Melissa Parinello, Director in BSC's Change & Adoption practice, to break down what 20+ seasons of reality TV drama actually reveal about human behavior at work. We're talking table-flipping resistance, Sonja Morgan's townhouse as a masterclass in fear of change, and why ”let them” might be the most powerful two words in change management.Â
If you've ever watched a stakeholder spiral in a design session and thought ”this feels like a Bravo reunion”, this one's for you.Â
What you'll take away:Â
- Why resistance is rarely about the change itself (and what it's really about)Â
- How to read behavior the way a seasoned consultant doesÂ
- The ”Let Them” theory and how it plays out on real projectsÂ
- Why trust is the foundation and what happens when it cracksÂ
Guilty pleasures, big lessons, zero table-flipping. Let's go!
