Most organizations treat change as a project to get through. At Prosci, we see it as a capability you build, so your organization is ready for whatever comes next. Each episode is a candid, interview-style conversation with change experts who share real stories of what they've seen work and what they've seen go wrong.


Host Emma de-la-Haye, Engagement Director for Prosci in Europe, leads conversations that go deep on one area at a time, season by season, from enterprise systems to AI. Alongside the seasons, standalone episodes dig into the specific topics and questions that deserve a closer look. Every episode is built to leave you with something you can use, whether you sponsor change from the top or lead it on the ground. It's practical and honest, grounded in more than 25 years of our research and real client work.

They fail in the gap between approving the change and actively leading it.

In the first episode of Built to Change, Prosci's Emma de-la-Haye talks with Kelli Smith about executive sponsorship in ERP transformations, and why active, visible sponsorship is the single biggest predictor of whether an ERP delivers value. Drawing on years of work alongside executives, Kelli explains what sponsorship failure looks like in practice, why leaders so often underestimate their own role, and how the best sponsors build a coalition that carries the change across the whole organization.

In this episode:

  • Why approval and active sponsorship are not the same thing
  • The behavioral warning signs that sponsorship is slipping
  • How much time sponsorship really takes across the ERP lifecycle
  • Why coalition building is the most overlooked move in ERP change
  • A practical first step for any sponsor

Built to Change is Prosci's video and podcast series on the real challenges behind change. Season 1 takes on ERP, with new episodes monthly. Subscribe to follow along.
