Real Talk About Culture, Leadership & Collaboration
Hosted by Dr. Kristine Gentry and Monica Smith, Collaborative Culture explores the beliefs and behaviors that make or break organizations—from the inside out.
What We Talk About:
Culture isn’t a vibe. It’s your organization’s operating system. Every other Wednesday, we dig into how culture, leadership, and collaboration shape the employee experience and drive performance.
Expect stories, case studies, and straight talk about what it really takes to build cultures where people—and ideas—can thrive.
