What if company culture wasn’t just a set of values on the wall—but a daily operating system?
In this episode of Catalysts, Jacob Ratliff sits down with Chris Dyer—globally recognized leadership speaker, best-selling author, and remote work pioneer—to break down what high-performance culture actually looks like in practice.
Chris has been named a Top 50 Global Thought Leader, a #1 Leadership Speaker by Inc. Magazine, and the CEO of one of America’s fastest-growing companies. His message is clear: Culture isn’t a vibe. It’s a system. And leaders have to own it.
In this conversation, we explore:
- Why most culture efforts fail—and what to do instead
- Chris’s 7 Pillars of Culture and how to put them into action
- What happens when leaders don’t model clarity and accountability
- The secret to balancing speed, trust, and flexibility—especially in remote teams
- Why transparency isn’t just ethical—it’s strategic
- What new managers and senior execs need to unlearn to lead effectively
- How to create cultures of intentional communication, not chaos
- Why “culture eats strategy for breakfast”—but only if it’s designed, not assumed
If you want your people to move faster, collaborate better, and stick around longer, this episode gives you the blueprint.
