Description

In this episode of Catalysts, I sit down with Rahul Karan Sharma—organizational development consultant, fractional CLO, and Forbes Coaches Council member—to explore what it really takes to lead through change that matters.

Rahul has spent 20+ years helping companies navigate post-merger integration, cultural alignment, and leadership acceleration. But his secret isn’t in a strategy deck—it’s in centering the people behind the process.

Together, we unpack:

• Why most change efforts fail—not because of planning, but because of people
• How poor communication during transitions drives attrition and burnout
• The difference between executing a training and building real leadership capability
• How fractional CLOs can fill a crucial gap for small and mid-size organizations
• What leaders get wrong at the “achiever” stage—and how to move beyond it
• Rahul’s proprietary CLIMB Framework, a roadmap for evolving from invisible contributor to legacy-building influencer
• Why internal trust is the most undervalued currency in transformation
• How “visibility is the new currency”—and why content matters for leaders

Transformation is personal. It requires consistency, empathy, and the courage to lead from the inside out.
