Episode #71 - Culture as a Multiplier

In this episode, we unpack how culture becomes a force-multiplier for your systems: why teams with psychological safety learn faster and perform better, how leaders actually shape culture through Schein’s “embedding mechanisms” (what you fund, schedule, reward), and what Netflix’s “freedom & responsibility” shows about rituals that make candor travel. Expect practical moves that wire values into day-to-day execution, so your operating system runs without you pushing it uphill.
