The world of work is rewiring. Are you ready?

Most expect me to say something about vision, values, or leadership programs. But if I’ve learned one thing in 20 years of building organizations and coaching leaders, it’s this:

Culture doesn’t live in strategy documents. It lives in the in-between.
  • In the silence after someone asks a difficult question. 
  • In whether a manager turns a mistake into punishment or learning. 
  • In the space between what leaders say and what they actually do.

That’s why culture is so easy to miss and so powerful to shape. The things leaders overlook as “small” are the very things people remember longest.

 

This isn’t just philosophy. 

 

I’ve seen high-growth companies lose their edge because the “in-betweens” were ignored. 

 

Meetings that discouraged dissent. Promotions that rewarded speed over trust. And eventually, teams that delivered numbers but lost meaning.

As I look at today’s workplaces where AI is rewriting tasks, skills are overtaking degrees, and managers are asked to do more with less, the in-between moments matter even more. They are where trust is either built or broken
