This Week’s Community Impact Awards Spotlight 🌟

This week, we’re proud to celebrate IU Health, a 2026 Community Impact Award winner in the Large Business category!

IU Health is demonstrating what it looks like when an organization uses its people, resources, and partnerships to address some of the most pressing needs in its communities.

Their impact includes mobilizing team members through IU Health Serves and Days of Service, investing millions of dollars through their Community Impact Investment Fund to address housing, workforce development, food access, and maternal health, and bringing care directly to underserved communities through community health workers, mobile health programs, and nutrition support initiatives.

Their commitment goes beyond healthcare. It’s about helping build healthier, stronger communities across Indiana.

Leaders aren’t born. They’re developed.

So, what skills help leaders lead themselves, their teams, and the business well?

At Culture of Good, we believe promoting someone because they’re great at their work, without preparing them to lead people, can set them up for failure.

Leadership requires a different set of skills.

These are the 12 skills we help companies develop so leaders are equipped and enabled to lead people well, not just be good at what they do.

Because when leaders grow, that growth should show up in three places:
In themselves.
In their teams.
In the business.

Which of these 12 skills do you think leaders need most today?

A huge thank you to Karli Jean for sharing her experience with our Culture of Good Leadership Development program!

Leadership development should be more than learning concepts. It should create space for reflection, meaningful conversations, accountability, and real-world application.

We’re grateful for the opportunity to work alongside the leaders at Stash Ventures and help equip them with practical tools they can use every day.

And a special thank you to Ryan McCarty for facilitating the experience and helping bring the learning to life.

When leaders grow, culture grows with them.

What if your company doesn’t need to do more good?

What if you just need to do good better?

Many organizations are already giving back, volunteering, supporting nonprofits, and investing in their communities. But without an intentional framework, those efforts can become disconnected activities instead of something that strengthens your culture, develops leaders, engages employees, and creates sustainable community impact.

The opportunity is to connect the dots.

In his latest article, Ryan McCarty shares what he’s learned from working with companies that genuinely care about making a difference and why a framework can help turn good intentions into lasting impact.

I’ve spent a lot of time working with companies that genuinely care about doing good. They give back to their communities.
