Catalysts walk a fine line between being outsiders and belonging—a tension that fuels their ability to think differently and connect dots that others may not see. In this episode, George White, Director at Slalom, explores how Catalysts can navigate this knife edge of having a vision for change while needing to bring others along on transformative journeys. George shares how essential frameworks, like the Houde Prototyping Model, combined with the power of storytelling, can clarify a vision for change to our colleagues. George also shared that having a “translator” co-conspirator can play a vital role in helping us to successfully drive bold ideas into organizational action. George explained that by embracing collaboration, clarity, and connection, Catalysts can turn the delicate balancing act of the knife edge into a launchpad for transformative impact."
