In This Episode:

Culture doesn’t improve by accident—it improves when leaders design it intentionally.

In this episode, Adi Klevit interviews Chris Dyer about how company culture becomes a system when leaders shift from control to empowerment. Chris shares how, early in his career, all decisions flowed through him, unintentionally stalling innovation and growth. That realization pushed him to rethink leadership and build an environment where employees were trusted to think, decide, and act.

Adi and Chris discuss the practical changes required to create an ownership-driven culture, including encouraging experimentation, allowing room for mistakes, and changing how leaders respond to ideas. Chris explains why stepping back from decision-making helped his teams develop stronger judgment and confidence, leading to faster growth and better outcomes.

The conversation also explores how culture can be systematized, even in remote environments. Chris introduces his Seven Pillars of Amazing Culture and explains why transparency, recognition, measurement, and intentional communication are essential for scaling culture without relying on a single leader.
