Session Title: Building a Culture Where Employees Thrive

Session Description: Culture isn't about slogans or checkboxes. It's about how people experience work everyday. In this session, we'll talk about what drives engagement in any size business. The importance of trust, communication, accountability, and engagement. Drawing from research and real-world leadership experience, this session helps leaders understand the unspoken expectations employees bring to work and how those expectations shape motivation, morale, and performance. Participants will walk away with practical ideas they can apply immediately to strengthen culture and reenergize their teams.

2) Spot common culture and engagement challenges in growing organizations
3) Identify simple, practical actions leaders can take to improve trust and connection
