How can your culture become a competitive advantage?

Why is engagement not just an HR metric, but a driver of business performance?

My guest on this episode is Bala Sathyanarayanan, EVP and CHRO, Greif Inc.

During our conversation Bala and I discuss the following:

Why culture is the operating system that determines whether strategy succeeds or fails.
Why engagement is not just an HR metric, but a leading indicator of customer and business performance.
How organizations that focus on systems outperform those that focus only on outcomes.
Why HR’s credibility depends on its ability to create measurable business value.
Why great organizations are never “great,” they are always chasing it.
