The Culture Creators
Culture holds a huge power to influence those within it. We read more and more about the impact of culture - particularly toxic culture - in business, government, sport clubs or communities. But still basic fundamental questions still remain unanswered: 1) What specifically makes one culture toxic and another buzzing with life? and 2) How do you actually steer culture from one place to another and avoid regressing back? These are the questions that continue to challenge executives, leaders and those wanting to make real change in the world. These are the questions we explore in the Culture Creators podcast. The podcast features in depth interviews with business leaders, sports coaches, community leaders and others that either have previous experience of steering culture from one place to another or are currently in the thick of managing it today. The purpose of the Culture Creators podcast is to build a repository of case studies, expert points of view and real life examples so that we can: a) better understand the mechanics and dynamics of this unseen, unaddressed and unaccounted for space that holds some much power to influence, and b) develop our own individual capacity to proactively shape and steer the cultures that surround us. Please subscribe to join us on this fascinating journey and develop your own deeper understanding of culture. Also please get involved by suggesting future guests that we all can learn from!!

In this short video your host, Bryn Edwards, briefly explains the underlying rationale, direction and purpose of the Culture Creators Podcast.
Your Host Bryn Edwards
After 4 years and 200+ episodes of the WA Real podcast that explored the stories, experience and expertise of people living in Western Australia and beyond, Bryn became aware of the presence a seldom acknowledged force that is constantly shaping our experience of life and work.
This is the unseen and surrounding force of culture.
Now the focus is on building better frames of reference to look deeper into mechanics and dynamics of this unaddressed influence, so that we all can create and experience more life-affirming creative growth cultures in all domains of life.
