Culture isn’t a happy hour or words on a wall. It’s the foundation that determines whether your firm thrives or fractures.

As part of the “Road to the Summit”, a special series ramping up to the 2025 Game Changers Summit this November 12-13, we’re revisiting some of the most powerful conversations ever featured at our events.
