More companies are hiring culture coaches and that's a meaningful shift.

What stood out to me in this article is how closely this increased emphasis on culture mirrors a big focus of fassforward's executive coaching:

• “Culture is the invisible machine that creates all future things”
Gavin McMahon in his new book Story Business (see first comment). Culture isn’t catchy lines on the wall. It’s a system. It need stewards, storytellers, and coaches. If no one is reinforcing the culture story, something else will.

• Outside perspective creates movement.
Progress accelerates when leaders have someone who isn’t embedded in internal dynamics offering challenge, clarity, and context.

• Leadership capability is the real lever.
Culture doesn’t change through values statements. It changes through how leaders show up under pressure.

• Trust determines depth.
People tend to go further when they believe the coach is fully in service of their growth, not balancing that with internal agendas.

• Internal ownership and external coaching works.
One of our clients has a Director of Culture we partner closely with, clear stewardship inside, supported by trusted outside coaches.

Interesting to see culture investments catching up to what coaching has long emphasized.

What are you noticing in how organizations are approaching culture differently?
