Organizational Culture & Values: What You Do When It Costs You Part 2
In this second part of my conversation with Kathy Phillips, we dive deeper into personal values, integrity, and what it looks like when your principles are tested in real workplace situations. Kathy shares her experiences navigating challenging scenarios, making tough decisions, and staying true to her values while influencing organizational culture.
If you found Part One insightful, Part Two takes it further, exploring the practical side of values, leadership, and how communication shapes the environments we work in.

Organizational Culture & Leadership: Healthy, Unhealthy, and Everything Between (Part 1)
In Part One of this two-part conversation, I sit down with Kathy Phillips, an experienced HR professional from Canada, to explore what organizational culture really looks like in practice.
We unpack how leadership shapes culture, the signs of healthy and unhealthy work environments, and why culture is often defined more by everyday behaviour than written policies. Kathy shares insights from her years of supporting leaders and teams through culture and change, including the challenges of command-and-control leadership and the realities of shifting organisational culture over time.
This episode is for leaders and team members who want to better understand workplace culture, recognize misalignment between values and practice, and begin important conversations that can spark change.

Something had to change.

More clarity. More intention. More impact.
If you’re rethinking how you work, why you work, and how to do it without burning out, you’ll feel seen here.
