Kylie Butler - General Manager at SynergyIQ, knows a thing or two about change (all right, she’s our go-to Change Expert). Before joining SynergyIQ, Kylie spent 15 years leading change in global defence companies and major pharmaceuticals. Now, in her role at SynergyIQ, she works with some of Australia's biggest and best-known companies and government organisations, helping them navigate complex change in a way that works and lasts. At a time when most change management practices are no longer fit for purpose, Kylie and the team are redefining what it means to lead change.

By applying a progressive approach based on a deep knowledge of systems thinking, sense-making, human behaviour and business acumen, they achieve results while reducing the quiet eye rolls from everyone involved in the change. Kylie is passionate about creating great experiences of change and wants to create a world where all organisations are capable of leading change. Ultimately, she wants to reframe how we think about change-shifting the change management narrative to a more positive, people-centric conversation.
