Episode description
When life upends our expectations, the space between what was and what's next—the neutral zone—can feel like wilderness. It's a time of uncertainty, discomfort, and profound possibility. Yet, how we navigate these transitions shapes not just the trajectory of our personal lives, but the culture and resilience of our organizations. In this episode, Ray Foote joins fellow Reboot Coach Ali Schultz for a deep exploration of the Neutral Zone, drawing from William Bridges' classic framework on change and transition. Together, they reflect on their own experiences and share what it really means to metabolize transition at the organizational and human level. Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts!
