Most leaders are told the same thing when it comes to change:
“Just manage it.”
But what if that’s the problem?
In this clip from Activating Curiosity, Ryan Ware challenges the idea that change can be managed at all. Whether in construction, leadership, or personal growth, change isn’t a one-time event you control — it’s an ongoing experience you participate in.
When leaders shift from trying to manage change to building a relationship with it, everything changes:
how they respond to uncertainty
how their teams engage
and how change actually sticks
This perspective is grounded in the 5 Cs of Change — Choice, Control, Clarity, Commitment, and Curiosity — which help leaders reflect on how they’ve experienced change in the past and how they show up to it today.
If you’re leading change in construction or the AEC industry, this clip will challenge how you think about change management and leadership.
