The Pattern Behind the Problem: A New Lens for Safety Culture
Nathan Hall, Creator of The Work of Us™ and Founder of Culture Check
Burnout. Disengagement. Change fatigue.
These aren’t separate crises—they’re signals of something deeper: hopelessness—a collapse of belief in change, in agency, and in each other.
Hopelessness is the crisis behind the crises. It traps teams in destructive patterns of connection.
This keynote introduces The Work of Us™, a practical lens for diagnosing and shifting culture. You’ll learn how patterns form through clashing rhythms. You’ll see how those patterns are shaped by a team’s conditions and capacity. And you’ll discover how every team’s repeated pattern becomes its Culture Archetype.
Map the pattern. Design a new rhythm. Restore hope—the foundation of connection, resilience, and a culture that lasts.
