I invite guests to share personal stories about acts of leadership that help shape their lives. In Episode 19, Kevin McNulty talks about the importance of attending to culture. Through his stories, we gain some insight into what it means to practice leadership in a way that strengthens cultural growth. Also, Kevin advises us on how we can more effectively lead by the way we treat those around us.

When I worked at Ceridian, Kevin did more than report to me: He informally coached me (believe me, I needed it!). As part of his role as the CEO of NetWeave Social Networking, Kevin trains and coaches small businesses to manage their social-media presence. presents to several chambers of commerce members as part of his stewardship. What else? Kevin served in the Army. Thank you, Kevin, for your service!

Kevin reminds us that we need to attend and influence the cultures within our organizations. Organizations have multiple cultures: team cultures, department cultures, cross-functional cultures, career-level cultures, and a few others. By the way, Kevin has a nice shout-out to David Marquet about communicating intent.

As a teenager, Kevin was in a program called the Young Marines. From that experience, Kevin advises taking care of your people. Leadership is not about you but about other people.
