The Best Culture-Change Workshop I Have Experienced

Most leaders talk about culture. Few actually know how to change it.

That’s why I sat down with Steve Gandara of ExcellentCultures.com - a man who’s helped transform organizations like Toyota, Microsoft, and Subway by uncovering the hidden beliefs that drive behavior and implement a data-drive process that produces change (Yes, that's Romans 12:2 but don't spoil the secret).

Steve and I had a super-fun conversation how he achieved all his goals by mid 20's, was depressed and reluctantly said "Ok God, I will go wherever!" (Thinking God would send him to a mud hut.) God's response was, of course, better than you can imagine, and catalyzed the journey that Steve has been on for the last 40 years.

Here’s why this matters to you:

1. Culture = Beliefs That Drive Behavior (and 95% of your beliefs are subconscious).

2. Science is catching up with Scripture—Romans 12:2 is more than spiritual advice; it’s a neuroscience strategy.

3. Transformation is measurable—when you align belief + behavior, results multiply.

This is not theory. It’s what Steve has been doing for over 40 years, and it works.

Experience the Workshop Yourself

In all seriousness, Steve’s Excellent Cultures Workshop is the most effective training I’ve encountered in over 40 years of leadership development. Whether you're a CEO or a young leader, it equips you with tools to shift culture, hear God more clearly, and multiply your impact. This is NOT an overtly Christian event so you could take anyone.

Excellent Cultures Next Workshop: October 7–8 (Plano, TX or Virtual) - Excellentcultures.com/events/

Early Enrollment Discount available before mid-September: Email us for the coupon.

Your culture will transform. The only question is: Will you lead it, or will it lead you?

How to Build a Business that Doesn't Depend on You
Last week while Andy and Janine were in Colorado, something shifted. Between workshops, conversations, and time with business leaders, what stood out most wasn’t the content, it was the proximity. Life shared in real time. Prayer in the middle of the day. Conversations that went deeper than strategy. It reminded me: this is how Jesus led. Not through events alone, but through relationship and p...
How to Build Without Costly Drift
  This week on Heaven in Business, we’re tackling a subtle but critical challenge for every Christian leader: drift. In this episode, Andy Mason shares a powerful picture of what it looks like to be “out of alignment”. Not the kind that's because of failure, but because of success without surrender. Without yieldedness. It’s possible to be productive, impactful, and still slowly move off course...
