You might have beautiful core values painted on your lobby wall, but if your team's everyday behavior doesn't match, your business is suffering from an "accidental culture".

In Episode 70 of the Making a Masterpiece podcast, host Norbert Elnar sits down with Culture Architect Pat Kliever to reveal why workplace culture is ultimately defined by exactly what leaders choose to tolerate. Drawing from his experience working with organizations across Germany, Australia, America, and Switzerland, Pat shares how to intentionally design an environment where people feel safe, empowered, and aligned with your vision.

Whether you are running a Kingdom business or leading a secular team, this episode gives you the exact blueprint to stop leaving your culture to chance and start leading by design.

In this episode, you will learn:

  • The Accidental Culture Trap: Why culture will create itself if you don't intentionally design it.
  • The $8,000 Culture Test: A powerful story from Dave Ramsey’s company that proves what true psychological safety looks like in the workplace.
  • 360-Degree Leadership: How to positively influence and shift your company's culture, regardless of whether you are leading the team, working alongside peers, or managing up to your boss.
  • The Golden Circle: Why your team stays for the "Why" and the "How", even though the "What" pays the bills.
  • Faith in the Workplace: Practical ways Christian entrepreneurs can bring Kingdom values (like servant leadership) into a secular office without making it weird or "cringey".

Thomas Carney, host of the Pursuit of Calling podcast, knows exactly how that feels. After receiving a progressive diagnosis of muscular dystonia that caused painful muscle contractions, Thomas lost his physical independence, had to give up his passion for working out, and faced a massive identity shift. But instead of letting this painful season defeat him, he used the clarity of his diagnosis to lean into his faith.

Thomas discovered that your circumstances do not define your calling. In fact, your calling isn't even for you—it is a tool meant to serve the people around you. In this conversation, Thomas provides a practical roadmap for anyone looking to navigate uncertainty. He shares how to grow intentionally, the specific questions you need to ask to uncover your hidden gifts, and why we must actively "speak the gold out" in others.

If you are ready to stop chasing success and start living out your God-given calling, press play to get the tools you need to move from pain to purpose.

Key Takeaways from this Episode:

  • Purpose in the Pain: How receiving a chronic diagnosis actually gave Thomas the clarity to focus on personal growth and helping others.
  • Your Calling Is Not For You: Discover why your true purpose goes with you everywhere you go and is ultimately meant to serve those around you.
  • The Law of Intentionality: Why finding your purpose doesn't happen by accident and requires daily, intentional choices like reading, getting into the Word, and seeking mentorship.
  • How to Find Your Gifts: The exact questions to ask yourself (and your closest friends) to uncover the natural talents you might be brushing off as simply being "easy".
  • Speak the Gold Out: The vital importance of actively pointing out and validating the unique gifts you see in the people around you.

Generosity is the currency of heaven, but how do we apply it effectively in the marketplace?

In this episode, Norbert and Ivan explore how business leaders and Kingdom people can move beyond using corporate social responsibility as just a buzzword or a PR stunt. Ivan shares his honest journey of pivoting from the world of corporate consulting into the social impact sector. He unpacks why true change requires us to rethink how we give, how we partner with communities, and how we tell their stories.

In this episode, we cover:

- Generosity driven by deep conviction vs. guilt.
- Costly lessons from a well-intentioned but failed community project.
- Three vital questions to ask before launching any impact initiative.
- The danger of "poverty porn" and the power of dignified storytelling.
- Why small beginnings—even five handmade teddy bears—matter as much as millions.

Whether you are an entrepreneur, a brand leader, or simply someone who wants to make a difference, this episode will challenge you to step up, collaborate, and bring the light of Jesus to the marketplace.
