🎙 The Ripple Effect: How Leaders Shape Culture
Culture doesn’t start with a slogan — it starts with a leader. In this episode of the Elite Leader Insights Podcast, Donald C. Kunkel Jr. explores how small, consistent leadership behaviors create long-term ripple effects that shape team culture, for better or worse.
Drawing from a real-world leadership case study, he shares five practical, research-backed strategies for driving cultural transformation — without fancy programs or corporate jargon. You’ll hear how clarity, feedback, accountability, and values-based hiring can reshape even the most misaligned teams.
Whether you're a seasoned executive or a frontline leader, this episode will challenge you to reflect on what you're permitting, what you're perpetuating, and how to lead culture change from the inside out.
You’ll learn:
- Why culture is built through repetition, not intention
- The #1 phrase that changed how Don leads and teaches
- Five best practices for shaping culture that actually stick
- How to hire, coach, and correct in ways that reinforce values
