Summary: In a workplace landscape defined by a 10-year low in employee engagement and the rapid integration of AI, how do leaders ensure their teams remain connected and high-performing? In this episode of The Thermostat, Jason V. Barger outlines a roadmap for 2026, shifting the focus from reactive trends to proactive, human-centered habits. He explores how the "soft skills" of the past—empathy, adaptability, and trust—have become the essential hard skills for modern executives. This conversation challenges the traditional "work-life balance" myth, proposing instead a "work-life rhythm" that treats employee well-being as a core business strategy rather than a perk. Jason breaks down the mechanics of "setting the temperature" through strategic culture audits, intentional 365-day onboarding, and the participatory alignment of values. By moving values from "posters on the wall to people in the room," leaders can build an environment where culture is co-created and sustained at every level. Essential listening for C-Suite executives, HR directors, and emerging leaders, this episode offers a tactical guide to navigating the technological shifts of AI while doubling down on the human elements that drive long-term organizational health. Episode Notes & Timestamps: [00:00] Intro: Jason sets the stage for 2026, identifying four habits your culture needs to navigate current workplace shifts. [00:03] 2026 Workplace Trends: A recap of the five key trends impacting the workforce, including values alignment and the engagement crisis.

[00:10] Habit 1 – The Culture Audit: Moving beyond survey fatigue to a strategic, honest assessment of your organization's "temperature". [00:12] Habit 2 – 365-Day Onboarding: Why the best organizations view onboarding as a year-long cultural roadmap rather than a first-week event. [00:14] Habit 3 – Participatory Values: Strategies to move values from static slogans to actionable behaviors that drive decision-making. [00:15] Habit 4 – Continuous Leadership Development: Why senior leaders must avoid becoming "finished products" and remain committed to their own growth.

Key Takeaways for Leaders: Audit for Action: Conduct a culture audit every 2–3 years, but only if you are committed to communicating themes and acting on the feedback to avoid survey fatigue. The 365-Day Rule: Treat onboarding as a long-term strategic immersion into your culture, not just a logistical checklist. Human-AI Balance: Lean on AI for efficiency, but double down on human judgment and emotional intelligence to lead effectively.
