The way we work has changed - permanently. But while our workplaces have transformed, many of our assumptions about culture, leadership and connection have not. Too often, culture is still treated as something that happens naturally when people share space, rather than something leaders must intentionally design in a world where work can happen anywhere. The Culture Reset is not a book about remote work, nor is it an argument about where work should happen. It is about Leadership – and the intention required to create meaningful connection, trust and belonging when proximity can no longer be relied upon. In organisations spanning geographies, locations, operating models and ways of working, connection is no longer a by-product of place. It must be created – by design. Deliberate, and shaped through the everyday choices leaders make. Drawing on over two decades of experience leading global teams before, during and after the pandemic, this book explores how culture has shifted - and what truly sustains it. It moves beyond policies and perks to focus on leaders: the behaviours they role-model, the trust they build, and the shared meanings that hold organisations together. Ultimately, it shows why connection is no longer optional. It is foundational to performance, resilience and long-term success. The real risk organisations face today is not where people work. It is whether leaders are leading with intention - or leaving connection to chance.
