The Final Chapter of Our Four-Part Blog Series for CEOs & Leaders
Here’s the harsh truth: If culture isn’t part of your leadership team’s scorecard, it’s not a priority.
Consider Atlassian, one of the world’s most successful tech companies. Atlassian’s leaders don’t just talk about culture — they measure it. Culture metrics like psychological safety, purpose alignment, and collaboration are tracked alongside financial KPIs. And leaders are held accountable for improving them.
If culture isn’t on your scorecard and discussed in your staff meeting/town hall, what message are you sending to your people? That it doesn’t really matter.

This lack of accountability erodes trust. Employees see right through the “culture talk” when leaders don’t follow through. And without trust, culture initiatives fail.
Stop treating culture as a fluffy concept and start treating it like the strategic asset it is.
Imagine if CFOs didn’t track financials. Or if VPs of Sales didn’t track revenue. It would be unthinkable. So why do we give leaders a pass when it comes to culture?
