What’s the secret sauce to building a culture that sticks?

According to Amy Bayer, Global Director of DE&I, Employee Engagement & Culture, at Duck Creek Technologies, it’s not some magic bullet—it’s your people.

In this episode, recorded live at CultureCon 2024, Amy sits down with Nikki to talk about how Duck Creek has created a people-first culture that thrives in a fully remote world.

Spoiler alert: it’s not about big budgets or fancy tools. It’s about empowering employees to own culture—every single one of them.
