Send us a textWhat does it really mean to create a culture where people perform at their best?In this episode of Leading People, I’m joined by Zach Mercurio, researcher, speaker, and author of The Power of Mattering, to explore how leaders can create a culture of significance — one where people feel seen, valued, and needed.Drawing on decades of research into motivation and human performance, Zach explains why performance, resilience, and engagement suffer when people feel invisible or replaceable — and why leaders play a pivotal role in shaping the everyday signals that tell people whether they matter.In our conversation, we explore:What a culture of significance really looks like in practiceWhy people perform better when they feel valued and neededHow leaders often unintentionally signal that people don’t matterSmall, everyday leadership behaviours that have an outsized impactWhy significance isn’t a “soft” idea — but a serious performance driverZach brings these principles to life through compelling stories from an array of organisations. Whether you lead a team, work in HR or L&D, or care about creating environments where people thrive and perform, this episode offers practical insights you can apply immediately.Curious?🎧 Let’s have a listenConnect with Zach on LinkedInCheck out the Power of Mattering on Zach's websiteFollow Leading People on LinkedIn Leading People on FaceBookConnect with GerryWebsiteLinkedInWide Circle
