Very few actually use them. In this episode, Barrett Ersek breaks down how Holganix built a culture where values aren’t just words on a wall—they’re used to make real decisions, guide hiring, and shape the direction of the business. From gratitude and resilience to the concept of “flow,” this conversation dives into a different way of thinking about leadership—one that’s driven by purpose, not just pressure.
