Every organization is being asked to transform through AI, new technology, changing customer expectations, and constant pressure to work differently. But transformation rarely fails because organizations lack technology or strategy. It stalls when the relationships needed to make change work are not strong enough.
Brad Englert has spent more than 40 years at the intersection of technology, leadership, and relationships. During 22 years at Accenture, including 10 years as a partner, and later as CIO of a 330-person organization at the University of Texas at Austin, he led complex implementations, transformed service cultures, developed leaders, retained customers, and built the trust required to move people through significant change.
Today, Brad helps leaders treat relationships as essential transformation infrastructure turning relationship-building common sense into common practice so people communicate more honestly, customers and teams stay engaged, and organizations can move from new ideas and technologies to real adoption, performance, and growth.
