Listen now as Dr. Ashleigh Moreland and David Masterton dive deep into the core of what makes any organisation truly successful: its values and culture. Inspired by a recent off-camera conversation that left them both invigorated and introspective, they bring a wealth of insights that apply to every aspect of life—whether it's in our families, workplaces, or personal relationships.
Dr. Ashleigh kicks off with a powerful story about her own breakthrough in understanding how deeply ingrained values shape our interactions and the culture we cultivate around us. This leads to a broader discussion on the importance of values in creating a healthy, supportive, and thriving environment, be it at home or at work.
Together, Ashleigh and David explore:
The Definition of Culture: How culture is formed through the collective behaviour and interactions of individuals within an organisation.
Shared Responsibility: Why creating a positive culture is not just the CEO's or the leader's job, but a collective responsibility.
Impact of Personal Wounds: How our past experiences and personal wounds influence our behaviour and interactions at work, often subconsciously.
The Role of Self-Awareness: The importance of self-awareness in recognising our own triggers and wounds, and how this awareness can lead to healthier interactions.
Communication and Vulnerability: How honest communication, bridged with vulnerability, is crucial for building trust and a supportive culture.
Real-Life Applications: Dr. Ashleigh shares a recent personal experience of managing stress and overwhelm in the workplace, illustrating the importance of systems and processes that support emotional and psychological safety.
Transforming Toxic Environments: Insights into identifying and addressing toxic work environments and how leaders can cultivate a culture of safety and growth.
Throughout the episode, they emphasise that values are not just lofty ideals but practical guardrails that can either support success or contribute to dysfunction, depending on how they are understood and applied. They also discuss the challenges of maintaining authenticity and vulnerability in competitive and high-pressure environments, such as large corporations, and the critical need for leaders to model these values.
Whether you're a business leader, an employee, or someone striving to improve your personal relationships, this episode offers valuable perspectives and actionable advice on how to build a foundation of strong values and a positive culture in any setting. Tune in to discover how you can contribute to creating a thriving environment where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued.
