In today’s environment, change is no longer a discrete event—it’s a constant state. The Hudson Institute of Coaching hosted this timely conversation with leadership experts Jennifer Garvey Berger, Krista Johnson, and Jennifer Tankersley to explore how organizations can go beyond responding to disruption and instead build the internal capacity to metabolize it. Moderated by Michael Hudson, the discussion examined what it means for coaching to scale beyond individuals and become a systemic force for resilience and alignment.

The panelists unpacked the dual nature of modern change—both acute and ongoing—and how this dynamic challenges traditional leadership models. They highlighted how coaching, when embedded throughout an organization, fosters cultures that can interpret disruption not as a threat but as information. From rethinking decision flows to noticing how stress and meaning-making move through systems, the conversation emphasized coaching as an essential strategic lever.

Throughout the dialogue, real-world examples illustrated how leaders who engage in reflective practice, stay curious amid uncertainty, and model developmental awareness create ripple effects that strengthen teams and clarify strategy—even during turbulence.
