What if culture was the most strategic lever in your business?
In this powerful episode of Show Your Value, Lee Benson sits down with organizational psychologist and culture expert Laura Hamill to break down the truth about workplace culture, leadership blind spots, and why most companies are doing it completely wrong.

Laura shares real-world insights from her time as Chief People Officer at Limeade, explains why alignment with strategy is the single most underrated ROI driver, and reveals how most culture initiatives fail because leaders don’t actually live their values.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

- Why culture is NOT about perks or slogans

- The ROI of aligning culture with strategy

- How power distorts leaders’ view of culture

- What “cultural betrayal” really means and how to avoid it

- How to operationalize values across systems, behaviors, and practices

- Why most “engagement” efforts are just lazy HR theater

- What it really takes to build an organization where people own their role

Whether you're a CEO, entrepreneur, HR leader, or just someone who wants to create meaning through your work, this conversation is a masterclass in building an intentional, value-driving culture.
