Hi, I’m Ryan

And welcome to Culture Makers.

Have you ever wondered how to more easily get the people around you or on your team motivated and inspired to want to bring their best selves forward and contribute to the mission at their highest capacity, all while working and operating in the best interests of the company, the clients & customers, and other members of the team? Of course you have, and the way to do it is much simpler than you might think, and it boils down to leadership and company culture. In the Army they use to tell us, "attitude is a reflection of leadership". This meant it was never the team's fault, even when it was. Everything falls on leadership; it's the most important element of your entire business. Your team is your business. And their future is your future. When we help our teams get the most out of life, we will get the most out of them, and we will make the greatest impact with our businesses.

Revolutionizing Company Culture

The old ways are dead.

We Live in a New World Now.

As business owners, team leaders, and managers, our foremost responsibility is to maximize our company’s impact. To achieve this, we must focus on the individuals who drive that impact—our team members. Developing everyone on our team is essential to helping them discover their life purpose and turn their passion into paychecks, whether that’s with our company, another company, or a company they create.

​

Within any organization, there are generally two types of employees:

The first group comprises those who see their job merely as a stepping stone—a way to earn a paycheck while they explore their next life steps. These individuals often occupy transient or high-turnover positions. While some may eventually find their true calling and remain with the company, many are simply going through the motions, which can dampen company culture and hinder overall performance.

​

In contrast, the second group consists of employees committed to the long-term vision of the company. They align with the company’s goals, recognize their own growth potential within the organization, and find purpose in contributing to its success.

​

To inspire and motivate those who may initially view their role as temporary, it is essential to become the best possible stepping stone for their future. By providing opportunities for personal and professional growth, and demonstrating genuine investment in their success, you can encourage these team members to fully engage and contribute to the company’s development during their time with you.

​

Our mission is to help every team member get closer to knowing their life purpose. When they align their passions with their work, they not only enhance their own fulfillment but also elevate the company’s success. This approach creates a vibrant company culture where decentralized command flourishes. Teammates are empowered to critically think, make decisions aligned with the company’s mission and values, and call upon senior leadership when needed. This freedom fosters creativity, growth, and discovery, allowing everyone to be their best selves and drive the organization forward.

​

In essence, by prioritizing the development of our team members, we unlock their potential, ensuring they thrive and contribute meaningfully—whether within our company or beyond. This investment in their future creates a ripple effect, positively impacting their careers and, ultimately, the broader community.

Purpose into Paychecks

Empowering Your Team for Lifelong Success

Purpose into Paychecks is an innovative program designed to provide your team with the personal, professional, and leadership development necessary to help them become the best versions of themselves. This program focuses on aligning individuals with who they truly are, enabling them to live an authentic and purposeful life. The goal is to set each team member up for success, even if that means they eventually leave the company to pursue other ventures, start their own businesses, or work for organizations more aligned with their passions.

​

At its core, Purpose into Paychecks is about transformation—both in mindset and life. Regardless of your role within the company, your involvement in this program will provide you with the coaching, mentorship, guidance, support, and resources needed to assist in your journey towards becoming your greatest self and developing a powerful vision for your future. This journey is not just about performing well in your current job but about discovering and developing your life purpose and learning how to turn that life purpose and passion for other people into paychecks.

​

When integrated into your unique company culture, this program will also help identify individuals who may not be aligned with the company’s mission and could be holding back the team. By providing these individuals with coaching and support, we help them identify their strengths, purpose, and vision for their future, whether it’s with our company or another. As we help these people get aligned and prepare them to move on to new opportunities, we aim to be a powerful part of their journey, ensuring they leave as advocates for our company. These individuals can become some of our best promoters.

​

For those who find their true calling aligns with our company’s mission, this program will help them unlock their inner potential, enhancing their value and impact within the organization. They will gain new perspectives, tap into their inherent strengths, and contribute more meaningfully to our collective goals. This process will not only benefit the individuals but also drive the company forward by fostering a culture of growth, creativity, and dedication.

​

Whether your team members stay with you or move on to new opportunities, Purpose into Paychecks is designed to align their mindsets with the vision of the company and their lifelong pursuit of happiness, fulfillment, and impact. By investing in their growth and development, we foster a thriving company culture where everyone can contribute to their fullest potential. This program will be a key driving force behind your team’s cohesiveness, innovation, development, overall production, and performance. Purpose into Paychecks is not just about immediate performance—it's about cultivating a sustainable, meaningful journey for each individual, ensuring they are equipped to make the impact they were created to make, wherever their path may lead.

The philanthropic Edge

"The Philanthropic Edge" is a transformative mindset and training program designed to empower leaders and their teams to approach their work with a profound sense of purpose and creativity. By integrating philanthropic principles into the core of their business strategies, leaders can inspire their teams to think beyond traditional goals and make meaningful contributions to the world, whether locally or globally. This program emphasizes the importance of aligning business objectives with impactful, socially responsible initiatives that resonate deeply with the company and the team. Part of "The Philanthropic Edge" involves creating an element within your business that addresses local and/or global needs, whether it's sponsoring and supporting a village in the Congo and sending them aid and supplies and visiting them annually, or building schools in a small town in Mexico, or starting and growing a community garden in a much needed area. The program not only instills a philanthropic mindset but also provides comprehensive skills training for traveling and providing aid in different types of terrain and environments world wide; ranging from the great outdoors to the urban setting of a third world country. We cover everything from land survival skills like fire building, land navigation, water collection and filtration, general camp craft, first aid, kayaking, canoeing, and outdoor cooking over a fire. You will, without a doubt, gain the practical skills needed to make a tangible difference where you are in the world. When employees see their work contributing to a greater cause, they develop a stronger connection to the company’s vision and purpose, fostering a sense of pride, motivation, and loyalty. Ultimately, "The Philanthropic Edge" not only enhances business success but also cultivates a culture of compassion and innovation that drives lasting positive change.
