Crystal Kadakia
Organizational Change Expert in Digital Workplace Culture
What is the possibility of “different”? That is the question Crystal Kadakia has been asking organizations to consider around the world through her keynotes, books and consulting work. It's a question that encourages us to abandon the traditional approach of "dealing" with change in exchange for embracing that which makes change different.
With a focus on reframing and operationalizing culture, technology and generation changes, Crystal steps beyond the traditional future of work conversations to inspire leaders to transform their businesses to thrive in this newly disrupted world.
Crystal has shared her message around the world for companies such as FedEx, Intel, Indeed, Nobu Hospitality and Wells Fargo. She has earned several accolades over the years including two-time TEDx speaker, Power 30 Under 30, CLO Learning in Practice and ATD One to Watch award.
She began her professional career in chemical engineering before turning organizational change leader, providing globally relevant workplace insight. Her unique perspective also represents a melting pot of eastern and western culture with left- and right-brain thinking.
Crystal is an award-winning consultant who has driven transformation in learning and development, diversity and inclusion, innovation and leadership capability for a diverse range of organizations including General Mills, Southern Company, and Sierra Club. Her best-selling book, The Millennial Myth: Transforming Misunderstanding into Workplace Breakthroughs, offers audiences a way to transform the five biggest stereotypes in the workplace.
Rather than feeling demotivated by change, Crystal sparks large shifts for organizations by inspiring a reimagination of the workplace and discovering what's possible with different changes that are inevitable in today's environment.
