What does it take to keep your people’s fire alive—and build organizations where everyone can thrive?

In this episode of The Culture Coach Podcast, Wendy Brand sits down with Telle Whitney—computer scientist, co-founder of the Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing, former CEO of the Anita Borg Institute, and author of Rebooting Tech Culture: How to Ignite Innovation and Build Organizations Where Everyone Can Thrive.

Telle brings decades of experience leading in technology and building communities for women in computing. Together, we explore:

💡 Why so many employees enter organizations with passion and leave a few years later feeling burned out or undervalued
💡 Telle’s Six Cs of Culture—creativity, courage, confidence, curiosity, communication, and community—and how leaders can bring them to life
💡 How to move beyond the numbers and create environments where people’s best ideas can flourish
💡 The critical role of storytelling, collaboration, and belonging in driving innovation
💡 Practical ways leaders can model curiosity, encourage courage, and design more inclusive workplaces

If you’re a leader who wants to build an intentional culture that keeps people engaged, inspired, and performing at their best, this conversation is for you.
