Why culture eats strategy for breakfast
-
Narrated by:

Written by:
Jon and Kory tackle one of the most talked-about, and most misunderstood, aspects of leadership: culture.
What actually is culture? How do you know if yours is healthy? And why do some organisations consistently attract great people while others struggle?
Drawing on research, personal experience, and leadership lessons, Jon and Kory discuss how culture is created, how it can be changed, and why hiring for cultural fit is only part of the story. They also explore why even brilliant people can fail in the wrong environment, how agency partners should become an extension of your culture, and why lasting change starts with taking ownership yourself.
