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?

When Pressure Hits, Who’s on the Throne?
What started as a win, a long-awaited “new” truck, quickly turned into a roadside crisis when the check engine light came on three hours from my destination. But the real issue wasn’t mechanical. It was internal. Pressure has a way of revealing what’s ruling your heart. Fear? Control? Shame? Or anchored identity? Crisis doesn’t create who you are; it exposes who you’ve been living as. In that m...

Feeling Pressure to Back Down? Do this now
When pressure rises and the noise gets loud, leaders are often tempted to shrink their vision, lower expectations, or retreat to what feels safe. Drawing from Nehemiah’s leadership under opposition, this message unpacks how to hear God at work and keep building when criticism, complexity, and distraction push you to back down. Anchored in Scripture and real-world business leadership, it reminds...
