Why the Little Things Can Have the Biggest Impact: Astella Philpott on Change & Safety.

Change isn’t optional—it’s constant.

Change Leadership Coach Astella Philpott brings a powerful perspective on navigating and leading change in the workplace.

From logging “even the smallest paper cut” to embracing daily uncertainty, Astella reminds us that the little things in health and safety—and in leadership—matter more than we think.

She shares practical tools around framing, communication, and coaching, and encourages us all to speak up, influence thoughtfully, and challenge the status quo.

Whether you lead teams or simply navigate change in your day-to-day, this conversation is packed with insights on how to stay mindful, curious, and courageous.
