What if the very culture you're immersed in is shaping your organization's success more than any strategy or business plan? Join us as we unpack this intriguing notion with Laura Hamill, an eminent organizational psychologist and author of "The Power of Culture." Drawing upon her extensive experience at Microsoft and as a founder of a thriving software company, Laura helps us explore the invisible yet powerful force of workplace culture. We dissect the nuanced difference between culture and climate, and why leaders must intentionally craft an organizational culture that synchronizes with strategic goals to bridge the often-overlooked gap between strategy and organizational ethos.

As we navigate through the challenges of fostering cultural change, particularly concerning flexible work environments and menopause support, Laura shares candid personal stories that illuminate the critical role of senior leadership in fostering a supportive workplace. We examine the concept of "cultural betrayal" and how the misalignment between promised and actual experiences can lead to detrimental outcomes. This episode challenges leaders to scrutinize and evolve workplace programs, urging a transformation towards a culture where employee well-being is prioritized, and everyone feels safe to express their authentic selves.
