Change.org appoints Steve Dziedzic as President

Change.org announced the appointment of Steve Dziedzic as President on October 23, 2026. Dziedzic, who has served as the company’s Chief Product Officer since 2024, will oversee the operations of the digital petition platform as it undergoes a period of restructuring.

The leadership change follows a strategic pivot for founder Ben Rattray, who will transition his focus toward the development and investment of new civic-oriented technology products. The company aims to evolve its infrastructure while maintaining its position as a tool for public advocacy.

As President, Dziedzic is tasked with managing the organization's core operations. The transition marks a formal separation of operational leadership from the founder’s focus on long-term product incubation.
