Have you ever wondered how to create a culture of transformation within your company? Today, we had an amazing conversation with Heather Haas, president of ADVISA, who shared her experience transitioning from a sixth-grade teacher to leading a leader and culture development firm. She enlightened us with her insights about the difference between training and transformation, the importance of intentional choices, and how understanding the learning process can shape the culture you want in your organization.

Our discussion delved into the rising cultural movement of people-first leadership and how it's changing the way individuals and companies think. We explored how technology is altering the future of work and why it's crucial to equip our people and companies to connect with each other. Heather shared examples of how investing in leader and culture development can lead to tangible outcomes such as employee retention, productivity, engagement, customer loyalty, and customer engagement.

Lastly, we touched on the importance of sharing perspectives, creating boundaries, and the power of stillness in building relationships with co-workers for a healthy workplace and a successful business. Heather shared her mother's advice to always surround yourself with people you can learn from, as well as the importance of taking a pause to be still.
