#CULTUREBITES
BRINGING TOGETHER A COMMUNITY OF SUCCESSFUL PROFESSIONALS AND CULTURE MAVERICKS, AND CONNECTING THEM IN CONVERSATION
You ask the questions you care about, and have conversations with leaders who are making a difference in their workplaces every day. You get to co-create the discussion.
BE PART OF SOMETHING DIFFERENT
Our big idea
Immerse regularly and learn from those doing it every day
Life is too short to be spent working in environments which seem to drain the very life from you, instead of bringing out your best. Irrespective of generation, once the hygiene factor of money is taken care of, we all want our work to be enjoyable, and for it to have purpose and meaning. Working with purpose isn’t just a “millennial thing”. We want teams who get on with each other, and with the job.
With an estimated $8,800 wasted on bad hires, $7,100 on unproductive conflict, and $7,000 on failing to benefit from innovation – PER DAY – optimising company culture is a must for companies.
And it’s a must for winning the talent war, and developing productive, creative and innovative employees who are the heartbeat – and secret sauce – of every company.
When you want to learn a new language, having the odd class here or there doesn’t cut it. You need to immerse.
Which is why we deliver successful all day events which immerse people in all things company culture, curating conversations with business leaders who actually walk the talk and have made huge differences to their results through creating a business which is whole, consistent, and complete, with complementary management, operations, strategy, and culture.
Our #CULTUREBites membership series builds on that foundation with regular monthly immersions.
What’s in it for you?
2 hour monthly* lunchtime immersions with collaborators and co-conspirators
Belonging to #CULTUREBites gives you exclusive access to our curated bite-sized lunchtime company culture, disruptive leadership and workplace strategy masterclasses – think part mastermind think tank/part training session, where you get your voice heard.
It’s a rolling 12 month program, and each month you will be at the table lunching with a different leader, digesting a different topic, at a Sydney CBD location selected to enrich your experience.
Over two hours, you will get to mingle and munch, continuously immerse, improve and innovate, and be supported to rise to the challenges and optimise the opportunities that will develop you as a disruptive leader.
This is about you asking the questions you care about, and having conversations with leaders who are making a difference in their workplaces every day, not simply sitting and listening to a speaker. You get to co-create the discussion.
As a member, you’ll also have access to support and resources, all designed to help you grow your team, your leadership, your business skills and your network.
Whether you are a CEO, a business owner, an employee, team leader, middle manager or more, you have the ability to impact the culture of your team and your company – and your results. This is your opportunity to take time out, once a month, to focus on the strategy that can make a real difference to your results.
* no #CULTUREBite sessions in December & January but we do have some other fun planned

WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT OUR IMMERSIONS
What is different about #CULTUREBites?
When you want to learn a foreign language, the secret is to immerse yourself, surrounding yourself with those who are already fluent, and others who are on the same journey as you, who understand where you are coming from, understand your struggles, and keep you taking action.
As Simon Sinek says, it’s not about intensity – how long you do something in one hit – but consistency – how regularly you do something. You don’t get strong after going to the gym once for 9 hours, you get strong after going for 20 minutes each day, month after month.
It’s just like that with #CULTUREBites. An initial commitment to intensity is good – that’s our all day #CULTURE event – but what really moves the needle is ongoing regular immersion and access to all the support you need.
This isn’t just a lunch. It’s not just networking. It’s not just listening to a speaker. It’s not just another event.
This is an immersion.
This is your chance to connect with leaders you wouldn’t normally get access to.
This is your opportunity to experience some of the most incredible office spaces in the CBD.
This is where you meet your tribe.
Some of our #CULTUREBites will be open to casual guests – make sure you don’t miss out, by joining us today.
