PRESS RELEASE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
LONDON, 5 August 2025 —
After years of leading transformation inside some of the world’s most complex organisations, Lisa Woodall has released Whatever Next? — Making Transformation More Human, More Honest, and More Likely to Stick.
Whatever Next? isn’t another playbook. It’s the conversation you wish you’d had before starting transformation. Through five human-centred lenses — Reflect, Reimagine, Reframe, Rewire, and Reconnect — Lisa invites readers to see transformation differently: to slow down, listen deeply, and re-centre humanity at the heart of organisational change.
“Transformation isn’t about perfect plans — it’s about people,” says Woodall. “For too long, we’ve over-engineered change and under-valued connection. This book is for those who want to make transformation real — not just visible.”
Grounded in lived experience rather than theory, the book blends short provocations, real stories, and reflection prompts designed to help leaders, architects, and change teams pause, think, and act differently. Each lens explores a distinct part of the transformation cycle:
- Reflect — Seeing what shapes us.
- Reimagine — Designing the future together.
- Reframe — Challenging the stories we tell ourselves.
- Rewire — Changing the habits and systems that hold us back.
- Reconnect — Bringing humanity back to the centre of work.
Early readers describe Whatever Next? as “a refreshingly honest take on what it really takes to transform” and “a companion, not a manual.”
The book first launched as a Special Edition signed copy in August 2025, selling over 200 copies directly and sparking conversations across transformation, architecture, and design communities. It is now available worldwide in paperback (£16.99) and Kindle (£9.99) via Amazon, as well as directly through whatevernextbook.com.
The release also marks the beginning of a wider Whatever Next? movement, including team conversation packs, keynote sessions, and the Whatever Next? Soundbytes podcast, launching this autumn.
