Benesch Launches “Legends of Culture” Podcast Series Hosted by Chief Culture Officer Jared Oakes

Benesch is excited to announce the launch of its new monthly podcast series, “Legends of Culture.” Hosted by Chief Culture Officer Jared Oakes, the podcast explores the evolving landscape of workplace culture through insightful conversations with accomplished culture leaders from a variety of industries.

Designed as an informal, storytelling-style conversation, not a traditional interview, each episode captures real, unfiltered lessons from founders and C-suite leaders who have built world-class workplace cultures.

“Legends of Culture” examines emerging trends in organizational culture, strategies for gaining employee buy-in and proven approaches that drive success. Jared brings his extensive experience and passion for fostering positive workplace environments to every conversation, offering listeners practical takeaways and fresh perspectives.

“We’re thrilled to provide a platform where leaders who view workplace culture as a core business strategy can share their stories and ideas,” said Jared. “Our goal is to spark meaningful conversations and inspire organizations to cultivate environments where people thrive.”

Kicking off the series is an in-depth sit-down with Michael McCullough, Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer of the Miami HEAT. Tune in each month to hear from guests who are shaping culture in their fields. Episodes feature leaders from a wide range of organizations, from NBA teams to investment firms. These leaders share how they identify, document, develop and implement culture that best supports their teams’ success.

The “Legends of Culture” podcast is available on all major streaming platforms. New episodes will be released monthly.
