Host Riha is joined by Sana Khammash, Culture and Leadership Consultant at EquaMind Consultancy, to discuss why culture matters most when business conditions are unpredictable. Together, they unpack how trust, clarity, shared values, leadership consistency, and employee connection help organizations stay resilient, make stronger decisions, and maintain momentum even in challenging times. The conversation also highlights how leaders can shape a culture that supports adaptability, strengthens engagement, and creates a lasting competitive advantage.
