Workplace Culture Isn’t HR’s Job: It’s Yours
with Tina Cantrill
Too many businesses treat culture like it’s an HR side quest—something to “get around to” between performance reviews and pizza parties. But when culture is left to drift, the real cost adds up: toxic behaviours, disengaged teams, slow execution, and burned-out leaders.
🛎 In this episode of Marc Haine Live, Customer and Employee Experience Strategist, Marc Haine sits down with organizational culture expert Tina Cantrill to tackle one uncomfortable truth: Culture is just the sum of how your people behave. And if those behaviours are misaligned, your results will be too.
About Tina
Tina Cantrill is a sought-after speaker and workshop facilitator who helps organizations fuel momentum and accelerate results by focusing on one thing: Behaviour.
With over 20 years of Fortune 100 executive leadership experience and a decade consulting with leaders and teams, Tina knows what accelerates performance, sharpens collaboration, and builds cultures that consistently deliver strong results.
Her approach is rooted in lived experience. After a near-catastrophic burnout caused by a toxic culture, she uncovered what truly drives - and derails - organizational momentum: The daily assumptions, actions, and interactions of people at every level.
Tina’s keynotes and workshops are high-energy, practical, and immediately actionable: Designed for organizations ready to increase engagement, fuel momentum, and accelerate collective success.
