Let’s stop talking about culture as something we have and start practicing it as something we do.
In this TED Talk, I share how healthy companies connect their values and behaviors to daily practices and organizational processes. Culture is not a set of posters or a one-time initiative. It is the ongoing practice of aligning what we believe with how we lead and how our teams work.
Through stories and real examples, we explore how to:
Tie strategy to culture and purpose
Codify behaviors, practices, and processes into a practical playbook
Practice “doing culture” instead of “having culture”
I speak on building cultures that execute in the age of AI. I blend personal stories with practical frameworks, so you leave with both inspiration and action.
Real talk about making strategy and culture stick. Each topic can be customized for:
