S04E09 Culture, Values & Vision
In this episode of the Story of Software podcast, we’re joined by Jack Godau, CTO at VRR Consulting and a digital evolution expert with over 24 years of experience in driving transformation. Jack specialises in helping organisations bridge the gap between business goals, strategy, and technology, enabling them to thrive in today’s rapidly changing digital landscape.
Jack discusses the vital role of culture, values, and vision in shaping successful teams and organisations. He explains how culture is defined by actions, while values are what teams say they stand for, and why these need to align for true success. Jack also shares his insights on how leaders can ensure their vision resonates with and inspires their teams, particularly as businesses scale and evolve.
Drawing from his work in both large corporations and startups, Jack highlights the importance of fostering a shared understanding of company values and using practical steps like workshops and consistent reinforcement to ensure alignment. He also discusses how to measure culture’s impact on performance, using tools like employee surveys and feedback mechanisms.
