In this episode of Culture by Neurodesign, Dr Lisa Colledge speaks directly to leaders who aim to take advantage of a growth opportunity, but sense that something is not quite right in their team—even when everything on the surface looks fine.

These early signals—low energy, stalled projects, reduced initiative—are culture alarms. They are subtle, and easy to ignore, but they are real. And most leaders, pressed for time or doubting their instincts, hit snooze and settle for lower levels of success than are available.

Lisa shares personal and client stories that illustrate what happens when those alarms are ignored—and what becomes possible when they’re heard and acted on. She discusses spotting the early signs of employee disengagement, and why proactive cultural design is one of the smartest growth moves a leader can make.

This isn’t about blame—it’s about reclaiming momentum. If your team is drifting, it can be reshaped. Culture can be adjusted. And with the right actions, you can reignite energy, recover your growth trajectory, and safeguard your competitiveness in the future—fast.

I’m Dr Lisa Colledge, and I help ambitious leaders build future-ready teams they trust to deliver now and adapt to whatever’s next — driving engagement, performance, and enduring resilience.
