In this episode of Catalysts, I sit down with Mark Cruth, Principal Modern Work Coach at Atlassian, to explore what it really takes to create effective, energized, and high-performing teams in today’s complex world of work.
Mark is a keynote speaker, collaboration coach, and one of the leading voices in the future of teamwork—internally at Atlassian and across the broader industry. He’s helped shape how 16,000+ employees at Atlassian operate while also empowering countless other organizations to rethink how teams learn, grow, and lead.
We unpack:
How Atlassian scaled its culture from 2,000 to 16,000 people
The secret to decentralized decision-making (and why most orgs get it wrong)
What makes Atlassian’s Team Playbook such a powerful operating tool
Why curiosity—not content—is the future of learning
The evolving role of the facilitator in an AI-powered workplace
How team learning creates deeper trust, faster behavior change, and longer-lasting results
Why visibility matters for leaders—and how to show up without selling out
The one mindset shift every emerging leader should make to spark change
If you care about how teams work—and how learning can accelerate that work—this is an energizing, practical, and deeply human conversation you don’t want to miss.
