2025 didn’t just test DEIB efforts; it revealed which ones were structural and which were fragile.

This week’s Culture by Design looks at what 2025 taught us about representation, leadership behaviour, and why consistency mattered more than intent.

This one felt like the natural next chapter.

Part 3 of my "What 2025 Taught Us" series explores leadership and how last year stripped away the margin for inconsistency.

It wasn’t about louder vision. It was about clarity, trust, and capacity under pressure.

Geez! It's not easy business being a Seahawks fan! #gohawks!!!!

Hard to focus with the game coming up tonight. Is it too much to ask for a Seahawks victory against the Rams for Christmas?

A lot changed in 2025. This snapshot captures what the data revealed about trust, belonging, and leadership, and where work remains.

DEIB didn't end in 2025, but it's changed

Consistency is the real credibility test.

#Leaders: Great leaders understand that by adopting a comprehensive approach to employee feedback, they not only reinforce positive behaviors but also facilitate meaningful change, empowering employees to align their intentions with their impact on the organizational goals. #HR #HRwithPhidelia #Work

Trust is the real productivity tool, and it can’t be automated.
Leaders don’t mandate trust. They earn it through consistency, clarity, and connection.

I’m trying something new this year: a weekly newsletter where I break down the articles and ideas shaping how we work.

This one looks at how AI, recognition, and leadership behaviour are quietly reshaping culture (and the energy inside teams).

Trust transforms groups into teams and teams into communities.

When people stop protecting themselves and start trusting one another, performance accelerates.

Organizational culture isn’t what leaders say, it’s what people experience every day.

A reminder that growth is a process, not a switch.
Organizational culture improves the same way — step by step, learning as we go, leading with humility.

Great leaders listen for meaning, not words.

Culture is shaped in the moments where people feel seen, understood, and supported, even when they don’t have the perfect language for what they’re experiencing.

Clarity isn’t just operational, it’s relational. When expectations are clear, people feel supported, grounded, and able to do their best work.

Start the week with clarity. 🌿

Meaningful acknowledgment creates energy.
