Industry research consistently shows that people managers are the single most critical factor in driving successful change adoption. Yet, they are routinely treated as the shock absorbers of every transformation program and the last group anyone checks in with regarding actual capacity.
An overloaded manager does not just underperform, they become a critical flight risk, and their entire team absorbs the pressure. Too often, leadership only discovers a key manager was at breaking point during an exit interview, when the damage to project momentum and team morale is already done.
Join Rhythm Engine™ Founder, Jasmine O’Reilly, and Head of Product Development, Nick McPhee, for an interactive online demo exploring how real-time diagnostic data can identify manager burnout before it impacts your rollout.

Secure your spot to discover how real-time diagnostic insights can protect your managers, safeguard workforce capacity, and set your transformation up for long-term success.
Founder
Jasmine started this because she was tired of watching good organisations make expensive decisions based on incomplete information.
She has spent her career embedded in change. Not on the periphery, advising from a safe distance, but in the operational heart of organisations, working directly with executive sponsors, frontline managers, and the teams caught in the middle. She has led programs across healthcare, utilities, financial services, and the public sector, in environments where the stakes were real and the margin for error was low.
Her focus has always been the human side of change: what actually determines whether people adopt something new, or quietly revert to what they knew. Motivation, competence, psychological safety. These are not soft concepts to Jasmine. They are measurable conditions. And the adoption readiness instrument inside Rhythm Engine™ is built on exactly that belief.
She built Rhythm Engine™ because she wanted every change leader to have access to the same clarity she had spent years learning to create the hard way.
Head of Product Development
Nick brings the workforce and people strategy depth that makes Rhythm Engine™ more than a survey platform.
His background spans strategic HR leadership, workforce design, cultural change, and leadership capability development across financial services, utilities, education, and transport. He has spent his career asking one question in different contexts: are the actual conditions in place for people to do their best work? Not the stated conditions. Not the intentions. The reality.
The manager load instrument is Nick’s contribution to Rhythm Engine™. It exists because he has seen first-hand what happens when the people responsible for carrying change through an organisation are already at capacity. They do not drive adoption. They transmit pressure. The change becomes one more thing piled on top of everything else. And it shows up in the data weeks before it shows up in a project status report.
Nick’s role in building Rhythm Engine™ was to make sure the platform asks the right questions about people, not just the convenient ones.
