Building a Business That Actually Lives Its Values: with Barrett Ersek - Part 2 | Ep. 118
About this episode
Barrett Ersek discusses how Holganix integrates its values into decision-making and leadership.
Most companies talk about values. Very few actually use them. In this episode, Barrett Ersek breaks down how Holganix built a culture where values aren’t just words on a wall—they’re used to make real decisions, guide hiring, and shape the direction of the business. From gratitude and resilience to the concept of “flow,” this conversation dives into a different way of thinking about leadership—one that’s driven by purpose, not just pressure.
