About
In this series, we’re getting radically honest about company culture with Lizzie Benton—culture coach, founder of Liberty Mind, and one of the most refreshingly candid voices in the world of modern work.
Let’s face it: “culture” has become a buzzword. It’s often pitched as a magic bullet for success, but most organisations still struggle to define it, let alone get it right. In this series, Lizzie helps us move beyond the platitudes. She unpacks what culture actually is, why so many transformations fall flat, and what it really takes to build a workplace where both people and business can thrive.
We’ll explore the tools and mindsets that matter, and dig into the uncomfortable truths that often get overlooked.
Lizzie is a culture coach and the founder of Liberty Mind. She helps companies evolve beyond bureaucratic structures towards more human-centred, purpose-driven workplaces. She’s worked across industries, from tech to charities to construction, always with a focus on unlocking human potential and helping teams co-create meaningful change.
Her approach blends depth and practicality, rooted in progressive practices like self-management, Liberating Structures, and Teal principles. Lizzie is a certified Holacracy Practitioner, Semco Style Expert, and TuffLeadership coach. She’s been named one of the top 30 millennials changing the world of work and has been featured in Forbes, The Metro, and The Financial Times.
