About This Podcast

Welcome to Culture is an Inside Job: The podcast on building an authentic, engaging, and Inspiring culture. At Coaching For Culture, we believe building work culture starts with executive leaders. If you are ready to get real and dig deep into your own self-awareness, determine how you want to show up in the world, understand HOW to do that, AND take aligned action to transform your leadership and those around you, then this podcast is for you! In our Culture Is An Inside Job Podcast, we help executive leaders answer the question: how am I showing up in the world? Co-hosts Karen Benoy Preston, Wendy Roop, Scott McGohan get to the heart of leadership, exploring the notion that teams and businesses thrive when they’re being led from a place of authenticity. And authentic leadership starts by knowing yourself. Join us as we share powerful leadership tools and insights from interviews with experts as we explore: Empowered leadership, building work culture starting with self awareness, navigating VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous) world.
