S10 E3: Your Culture Can’t Outrun the News Cycle with Dave Garcia
Look, I know sometimes we like to pretend work exists in its own little bubble, but in reality, the world outside your office door affects…A LOT at work.
This week, I’m joined by my friend and returning guest Dave Garcia to talk about how immigration, inflation, and global chaos are all shaping company culture in real time.
We’re unpacking what it means to lead when people are scared, burned out, or just tired of pretending things are “fine.”
Because the truth is that employees crave predictability in unpredictable times, and it’s on leaders to step up, define the mission, and actually mean what they say!
So if your company culture feels a little shaky lately, this one’s for you.
