135 The Art of Reinvention: Interview with Dr. Nadya Zhexembayeva

Feb 24, 2023

If you’ve ever felt like change, volatility, and uncertainty are happening in the world around us more often than ever before, you’re not alone. While navigating a “new normal” characterized by frequent disruption can feel uncomfortable and even frightening, shifting your mindset to approach reinvention as a standard part of life can help lessen this resistance and prepare you for inevitable changes. 

As the founder and Chief Reinvention Officer of the Reinvention Academy, Dr. Nadya Zhexembayeva has helped numerous organizations – including Coca-Cola, Cisco, and the L’Oreal Group – reinvent their products, leadership practices, and business models to meet new market demands and prepare for incoming disruptions. She has also delivered keynotes and workshops to over 500,000 executives, as well as four TEDx Talks, and has written several award-winning books. In Episode 135 of The MINDSet Game® podcast, Nadya discusses strategies to help individuals and organizations not just survive, but thrive in chaos. She shares several insights, including the following:

• The importance of doing the mindset work needed to shift the way you think about change and disruption
• 3 key steps that organizations must address when approaching change: anticipating, designing, and implementing change
• How to balance change and continuity, which is essential for organizations seeking to adapt in a volatile world without sacrificing key parts of their identity
• Actionable tips for leaders who may be weary of reinvention
