#208 B2B Leadership Culture Starts With You (Whether You Like It or Not)
Tue Feb 03 2026
In this episode of the Story-Driven Business podcast, Susanna Rantanen explores why B2B leadership culture starts with you, whether you like it or not.
Drawing on behavioural science and real-world leadership experience, this episode explains why culture isn't created in strategy decks or off-sites, but in everyday leadership behaviour:
how you respond under pressure,
give feedback,
handle conflict
and how you model values in action as a leader.
If you've ever wondered why alignment slips, why teams behave differently than expected, or why culture change feels harder than it should, this episode will help you see leadership culture in a whole new way.
