What we chat about
The 1980s definition of “”excellence”” is obsolete. We’ve navigated a digital revolution, a global recession, a pandemic, and now a talent crisis defined by the “”Great Resignation”” and “”Quiet Quitting.””
The old rulebooks won’t solve today’s challenges. So, what does a high-performing organization actually look like now, and how do you build one when talent is scarce?
You find the answer by going inside the companies that are winning today.
For 30 years, Wavelength Co-founder Adrian Simpson has done just that, taking over 1,500 leaders inside the boardrooms and onto the shop floors of the world’s most progressive organizations, from Apple, Alibaba, and Tesla to Netflix, Lego, and the Ritz-Carlton.
Drawing on three decades of unparalleled access, Adrian joins this two-part conversation to share the practical, defining characteristics of success he has seen firsthand. Listen in as he distills real-world insights into an actionable guide on building a high-performing culture, even in the middle of a talent desert.
