When Boards Aren’t Aligned, Strategy Fails. Paul Kendrick on Purpose, Priorities, and Execution

Digital transformation doesn’t fail because of technology. It fails because leaders don’t align. JP and Neil sit down with Paul Kendrick, whose career spans travel, digital transformation, and large-scale change. They strip back the hype around AI, innovation, and “future-ready” strategies to focus on what actually drives results: customer outcomes, board alignment, and empowered teams. This is a grounded, no-nonsense conversation about why purpose matters, why short-term thinking kills progress, and how urgency, when used well, can unlock real momentum. You’ll hear about: Why AI should support people, not replace them How misaligned boards quietly sabotage transformation The real cost of short-termism What it takes to build a culture that can actually change Press play. Or keep pretending it’s a tech problem. Join the conversation: https://perfectrebel.com/
