Episode 20: Beyond DEI: Building Cultures that V.A.L.U.E. Everyone


Listen Later

DEI is facing growing scrutiny—and not just in boardrooms or courtrooms. Many companies are realizing that traditional diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives often fall short of creating real culture change.

In this episode of Culture Secrets, host Chellie Phillips introduces a bold alternative: the V.A.L.U.E. Culture Framework.

Instead of chasing compliance or one-size-fits-all strategies, V.A.L.U.E. invites leaders to build workplace cultures grounded in Vision, Accountability, Leadership, Uniqueness, and Engagement. You'll hear how this people-first approach fosters real belonging, boosts performance, and drives trust from the inside out.

🔑 What we’ll explore:

  • Why DEI policies are falling short in today’s environment
  • How the V.A.L.U.E. formula redefines inclusion and respect
  • Real-life examples of workplaces that thrive through culture—not checklists
  • How to start embedding V.A.L.U.E. into your team’s everyday behavior

If you're ready to move from performative to purposeful, this episode is your roadmap.

🎧 Listen now and discover how to build a workplace where everyone feels seen, supported, and inspired to succeed.
