What is Founder Culture with Romaine Wright?
Founder Culture is the podcast for founders and startup leaders who want to build companies where people actually work well together, not just work hard.
Hosted by Romaine Wright, Founder of Just Wright Consulting, LLC, this bi-weekly show unpacks the problems that slow teams down and gives you behavior-based solutions that actually work. As a founder and experienced practitioner, Romaine brings firsthand insight into the pressures of leading a growing company plus the tools to build trust, clarity, and culture that scales.
Each episode presents a relatable issue (The Challenge), explores what’s driving it (The Behavior), and walks you through strategies to move forward before it costs you trust, time, and talent (The Reset).
This isn’t leadership theory. It’s what happens when real problems create real pressure—and how to build a team that can handle both.
