PODCAST: Shaping workplace culture and behaviour, Stephen Becsi, Pulse Global

CEO of Pulse Global Stephen Becsi joins host Phil Tarrant on this week’s episode of the Defence Connect Podcast to discuss workplace culture, behaviour and why he believes culture is not something that should be owned by HR.

CEO of Pulse Global Stephen Becsi joins host Phil Tarrant on this week’s episode of the Defence Connect Podcast to discuss workplace culture, behaviour and why he believes culture is not something that should be owned by HR.

Becsi reflects on his 20 years of service in the Royal Australian Navy, retiring as the Director of the Strategic Reform program. He shares how he applies his skill set from the RAN to his current role, recommendations around workplace culture and behaviour for leaders in the defence industry, and his definition of culture.


The pair also discuss the link between culture and behaviour, why leaders need to keep themselves accountable and how long it actually takes for culture to change within an organisation.
