Culture is not soft. If it were easy, we would not see 70% disengagement. I point to numbers: market cap grew from about $300 million to $3.6 billion, engagement over 90%, no layoffs in downturns, more countries. Belonging and trust drove performance; ignore culture and you pay in results and talent.
