Aaron Burnett is CEO and founder of Wheelhouse Digital Marketing Group, recognized by INC Magazine as one of the best places to work in the United States.
His more than two decades of marketing experience are defined by an early realization: that conventional, mercenary business brings little joy or fulfillment. Instead, Aaron has spent his career cultivating an unconventional culture focused on helpfulness and generosity.
This is a story told through people—by strings of adjectives, straight from Aaron’s colleagues, employees, and clients: “trustworthy,” “astute,” “imaginative,” and “scary smart,” to list a few. It’s also a story told through Wheelhouse DMG.
Wheelhouse is the result of Aaron’s experience and commitment to values-driven decision making. The agency’s culture is guided by twin missions: to be the best partner for each client and the best place to work for as many people as possible. In 2015, Aaron brought even more life to these values by launching a quarterly “Generosity Day” initiative to serve those in need within the Seattle community and the “Joy Fund”, a monthly stipend for each employee to spend in any way that brings joy to one of their teammates.
In this episode, listeners will discover the power of culture as an engine for growth and for good in the workplace. More specifically, how a focus on helpfulness, generosity and joy can fuel a healthy, thriving business and a vibrant, joyful culture. Tune in to learn more about the resources, tools and tactics that can be employed to operationalize culture and "make values habits."

What is the most important skill of the future?
Being conscious and understanding the interdependence of our planet and the ecosystem.
What part of the future are you most optimistic about?
The ability for people who have similar values to collaborate and co-create together.
What is your definition of success, and has it changed over time?
Success to me is going to bed every night, feeling grateful for the day, feeling i did the best i could, and being able to know what i could do better the next day.
What negative experience in your life are you most happy that happened to you?
My wife and I bought our first home. Six days after we moved in, somebody tried to burn it down. They came in days after they stole hand carved fireplace mantles stainless windows, my bike, TV. We move back in to this house with no heat, no hot water, no alarm system, no electricity, no plumbing and no kitchen. And so I understood gratitude of the neighbors giving us food helping us figure out what we could buy. We didn't even know anybody in the neighborhood. People brought us things just out of the compassion of their hearts. I understood the interdependence of things and also less dependent on material things. We had few dollars in the bank. We just gotten married a year and a half ago; this was our dream house. We had to really see the bigger picture and understand grace at that deeper level. I'm very glad that happened to me and me it made me a better person.
What is one thing everyone listening to this episode should go and do today?
Talk to strangers. Talk to people in your Uber. Talk to people at the cashier. Talk to people in a bank line. Understand that everybody is a soul. Just like you, everybody is a human being that deserves respect. Most people actually want to talk and once they do, you can find out brilliant, amazing things and you might find out somebody may becomes your long lost friend or your wife or your business partner.
What advice would you give to someone who is feeling stuck or unsure about their career path?
Quiet minds go deep. Ask yourself what am I here to do? Why am I here on Earth right now in this lifetime? Wait until you get the answer. It might not happen immediately. But if you keep asking that question and understand that you you are loved, no matter what you do, if you can start from the point of view of unconditional love the same way you would want to love your child love yourself, then the question doesn't become so stressful.

A certified executive and leadership coach (CPCC, PCC, CNTC), Kendra believes that leading with excellence begins with personal mastery, and she is passionate about working with high-performing leaders who want to realize their potential and experience a broader range of sustainable and measurable success. Outstanding leaders have abilities that go well beyond business acumen and operational knowledge; they also continuously examine their past and current impact while learning to develop and expand their leadership to include a broader and deeper range of styles, emotions, and expressions. Kendra is committed to helping people learn how to lead actively and authentically by understanding how to engage in more strategic, outcome-focused conversations, strengthen their creative responses to situations, and find the right balance between relationship and task orientation.
Relying on neuroscience, positive psychology, somatics, nature, spirituality, and the multidisciplinary science of high performance, Kendra engages people in thought provoking conversations that empower and help them dramatically expand and improve their leadership capacity, clarity, and confidence so they are better equipped to manage competing priorities and discover new and more efficient ways of delivering results. She also works skillfully with live group dynamics, creating an environment for participants to take personal risks, push cultural boundaries, and build alignment in complex and changing environments.
Since 2008, Kendra has successfully launched and grown her coaching company, Blueprint Strategies Inc., authored the Executive Career column for the Financial Post online, coached hundreds of executives, and led and supported the design and delivery of leadership development programs in many sectors, including Financial Services, Automotive, Retail, Healthcare, and Government.
