   Final Episode Alert! Change Leadership: Trust, Influence, and the Power of Conversation with Hannah Jordan

   In this very special episode of Change Leader Insights, host Jessica Crow (https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessicacrow/) reconnects with former guest Hannah Jordan (https://www.linkedin.com/in/hannah-jordan-8ba884140/), Organizational Change Manager at Larimer County, for a full-circle conversation marking the show's final episode! Hannah, who was the first guest on the show in 2023, reflects on her journey from social work to change management and how she’s evolved from a rule-following new practitioner to an adaptable, trusted voice leading people-centered change. With a background in social work and professional training in change management (PROSCI Certified Advanced Change Practitioner, Lean Change Agent, and BRMP), Hannah helps teams navigate change with empathy, strong relationships, and open dialogue. In her free time, she enjoys hiking Colorado's 14ers, rock climbing, and spending time with her three cats. During the conversation, Hannah shares how she brings a people-first lens to change leadership and the lessons she’s learned along the way. As someone who loves process and structure, Hannah also shares how she once feared not “doing change management the right way,” and how she’s learned to trust her instincts, prioritize human connection, and redefine what success means in her role. Highlights from the conversation include: ☑️ Why conversations matter more than deliverables, and how to use tools to drive clarity and insight ☑️ A personal story about the power of connection and how to build trust by building relationships ☑️ How being a change leader who doesn’t like change has become one of Hannah’s superpowers ☑️ Why focusing on your “why” and trusting your gut is more important than getting every step “right” This episode is a powerful reminder that leading change is about connection, credibility, and consistency, not credentials alone. Whether you're new to the field or rethinking your approach, Hannah’s journey and stories will inspire you to lean into your voice, your values, and your own way of leading change.

How Change Management Found Me (And Changed Everything) with Theodore D'Souza

Published 5 Nov 2025 · Transcript excerpt

[…] It's hugely important being able to learn from other people who have experienced it. You know, when you don't have the experience to suffer, it's hard to be able to organically get that experience. So yeah, definitely for me, I went through three or four mentors over the course of three years. Some were specialized, very heavily specialized in change delivery. Some were more at that change leadership level, honestly, in change, but they were at more than exact level and they had that exposure of decision -making and how can your decisions impact the people in your organization. So I always always will vouch for mentorship and finding the right mentors around the place. […]
