In this energizing episode, host Alissa Hsu Lynch sits down with James D. White, renowned board leader and former Jamba CEO, and his daughter Krista White, rising workplace culture strategist and writer. Together, they share how their experience as a father-daughter team powered their new best-selling book, Culture Design, and reveal why transformation starts with rethinking culture from the inside out. Tune in for actionable stories on creating workplaces that are resilient, purpose-driven, and ready for the future, from practical rituals to the \"big misses\" in AI readiness, and the surprising power of middle managers. 💡 Key Takeaways: Every company has a culture, whether by design or default. When leaders are intentional, they build organizations that perform and endure. Millennials and Gen Z are shifting workplace priorities. For them, flexibility, meaningful work, and being valued as whole individuals matter more than just compensation, redefining what creates loyalty and engagement. Rapid advances in technology and AI are changing how work gets done, but empathy remains a uniquely human advantage.
