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?

Pastor and Business Leader: What We Wish We Knew
Too often, we’ve separated Sunday ministry from Monday business. Pastors often see business leaders primarily through the lens of giving and volunteering, while business leaders may assume their pastor offers little for the challenges they face at work. Both miss something valuable. I sat down with Randy Griffin, former pastor, business owner, and now C12 Chair, to talk about what each side wis...
