Human Performance 360 Episode 07 | The Science of Lasting Change (Podcast with Founder of Intentional Change Theory, Dr.Boyatzis)
Professor P with Dr.Peykar
What if the reason most people fail to change… isn’t lack of discipline—but misunderstanding how transformation actually works?
In this episode, we dive deep into the science of sustainable change with one of the world’s leading experts in leadership and human development, Richard Boyatzis.
A distinguished professor at Case Western Reserve University and a pioneer in emotional intelligence alongside Daniel Goleman, Dr. Boyatzis has spent decades uncovering what truly drives lasting growth—both in individuals and organizations.
This conversation goes beyond surface-level motivation and into the neuroscience of transformation.
We explore:
Why willpower alone fails—and what actually creates lasting change
The power of vision and identity in rewiring your brain
The difference between coaching with compassion vs. compliance
How emotional intelligence shapes elite leadership and performance
Why stress destroys performance—and how renewal restores it
This is not just about becoming better.
It’s about becoming who you are capable of being.
If you’re an athlete, leader, or high performer seeking sustainable excellence, this episode will challenge the way you think about growth, discipline, and transformation.
