Houston, We Have a Culture Problem

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2025/04/23

In today's episode: The hype over last week's Blue Origin space mission got a slew of criticism for being spectacle over substance. We see a similar focus on spectacle in attempts at culture change, too. But people recognize inauthenticity in their bones. Culture change is about slow, consistent progress. It requires leaders to focus on what they can change within themselves to shift the beliefs of those around them. CEO Daily Brief is a daily, five-minute podcast for CEOs where we dissect the

2025/04/22

In today's episode: People are still in the habit of "please" and "thank you" to ChatGPT; they're obeying the rules of politeness without actually meaning it.

Convicted Versus Compliant Leadership

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2025/04/21

In today's episode: In the face of hardship, convicted leadership means taking a risk; compliant leadership absorbs difficult circumstances without rocking the boat. Both are valid paths. Neither choice should come from impulse or anger; it should be a calculated decision based on the stakes and values of a particular company. It's worth asking, as a leader: how often do I rely on one tool or another? How often does each come from a place of instinctive anger versus mental clarity? CEO Daily

2025/04/18

In today's episode:Monique Robertson Gunter explains how she helped Wellby Financial build a culture where employees felt their feedback would be heard and implemented.

Compensating Top Talent

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2025/04/16

In today's episode: Your top talent knows they're top talent; they have leverage, even if leadership doesn't acknowledge it directly.

A Workforce in Survival Mode

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2025/04/14

In today's episode: Worker confidence is lower than leadership confidence, and it's declining faster. There are three root causes: ambiguity around AI and the economy, erosion of workplace culture, and stagnation leading to a lack of innovation.

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2025/04/10

In today's episode: President Trump's long-term strategy with tariffs is to bring back American manufacturingg. In the short term, manufacturing will shut down across America as companies put a hold on shipping goods.

In today's episode: We're living in a time of constant changes; the best way to survive is to be flexible. This pairs with the research Culture Partners did with Stanford: an adaptable culture proved to outperform any specific culture type. When conditions shift, strategies shift.

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2025/04/08

In today's episode: Jessica and John react to the sweeping tariffs President Trump announced last week, and the market nosedive that we've seen since. The tariffs have set the world into an "us versus them" situation; the rest of the world is going to start making deals and alliances without the input of the US. It's not clear what the plan is; and as citizens, it's important to keep asking for details to stay informed. CEO Daily Brief is a daily, five-minute podcast for CEOs where we dissect

Highlight: Culture Q&A

CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel ·

2025/04/04

In today's clip from one of Jessica's keynotes:If it seems like somebody isn't bought into the company's mission, there's an easy fix: ask. If they're not bought in, then learn what experiences they would need to acquire the beliefs you want. Subcultures are natural within a company. Internal diversity of thought can often be a strength. Company cultures can help people self-actualize. With that kind of mindset, organizations can achieve results and help people flourish at the same time. CEO
