Episode 54 - How To Create The Right Workplace Culture For Better Workplace Health & Well-Being - with Nia Pommerenke from SeaBright Culture Solutions

In the latest episode of The Health Literacy 2.0 Podcast, host Seth Serxner sits down with Nia Pommerenke, Founder of SeaBright Culture Solutions, to talk about what it really takes to build a workplace culture that champions health, wellbeing, and lasting success.

Nia shares how clear values, strong leadership, and an engaged environment drive not only retention and productivity but also health literacy and trust. The big takeaway? Defining and living your culture from the top down isn’t optional - it's the smartest investment you can make in your people and your company's future.

Nia has spent over 25 years immersed in the world of HR, always gravitating towards the elements that shape people’s experience at work: culture, engagement, and leadership. Nearly a decade ago, she launched her own consulting business, initially offering a broad range of HR services.

However, Nia soon discovered her passion for workplace culture and has since made it the core of her work. Today, she is dedicated to helping organizations strengthen culture as a key driver of both well-being and performance.

Seth and Nia also discuss:

☑️ The criticality of culture assessments before making changes.

☑️ Distinguishing between stated values and lived values in the workplace.

☑️ Why organizations often misdiagnose problems, overlooking culture as the root cause.

☑️ The implications of leaders seeing culture as a "leadership imperative."

☑️ The vital role of psychological safety for wellbeing and performance.

☑️ Strategies to stop the spread of disengagement.

☑️ Concrete actions senior leaders can take to model the desired culture.

Building a healthier workplace isn’t about surface-level programs or slogans - it’s about embedding core values, fostering psychological safety, and supporting leaders to sustain change.
