Planting with Intention
Manage episode 485431356 series 3657671
In this episode of Your Preshift, we turn our attention to one of the most powerful questions a leader can ask:
“What am I cultivating here?”
Because like a garden, your team culture doesn’t grow by accident. It grows from what—and who—you plant.
We explore how planting isn’t just about putting people in roles—it’s about why you put them there, and what you expect to grow.
You’ll hear:
- Why intentional leaders don’t just fill spots—they shape ecosystems
- How seemingly small decisions (like who trains a new hire or greets at the front door) have lasting ripple effects
- How to recognize what you're really planting—clarity or confusion, support or pressure
- And why patience, timing, and internal growth matter more than quick fixes
Whether you’re leading a restaurant team, a project group, or a classroom—this episode reminds you that every planting decision is a cultural one.
It’s not just about getting the job done.
It’s about building the kind of place where people can grow.
