What separates workplace cultures that inspire creativity, trust, and collaboration from cultures that drain energy and limit growth?

In this new episode of Mastering Workplace Culture, hosts S. Chris Edmonds and Mark S. Babbitt welcome design leader Demetrius Romanos for a powerful conversation about culture, leadership, feedback, trust, and human connection.

Drawing on experience with brands including Coca-Cola, Microsoft, Ford, Duracell, Lowe's, and Ergobaby, Demetrius shares why leaders must intentionally create environments where people feel safe contributing ideas, challenging assumptions, and growing together.

One memorable takeaway: "Human beings first. Colleagues second."
