Chris Angell and Jodee Bock explore Neil Howe's "The Fourth Turning Is Here" and what its historical framework of cyclical societal change means for company culture today. They unpack the four "turnings" — High, Awakening, Unraveling, and Crisis — and make the case that we are currently in a Fourth Turning, a period of institutional breakdown and low trust. The conversation connects this macro-historical lens to practical leadership decisions around trust, alignment, shared values, and building cultures that can weather change. This episode is for founders, executives, and HR leaders who want to think beyond the next quarter and build organizations designed to last.
