Every leader wants a thriving culture—but it starts with getting uncomfortably honest about the one you already have. In this episode, Jenni unpacks the LeadCulture Framework with the first and most courageous step: assessment.
She’s joined by pastor, author, and podcast host Adam Weber, who shares his raw and vulnerable journey of discovering how his leadership was unintentionally shaping a culture that wore his team out. From staff turnover and painful lessons in self-awareness to rebuilding trust and creating a healthier environment, Adam’s story is a powerful reminder that culture begins with us as leaders.
Together, Jenni and Adam explore:
- Why assessing culture is deeply personal, not just organizational
- The role of self-awareness in shaping healthy teams
- How feedback (even painful feedback) can become your best ally
- Practical rhythms that foster honesty, care, and long-term faithfulness in leadership
If you’ve ever wondered what it really takes to create a thriving team culture, this conversation will challenge, encourage, and equip you to take the first step.
