Start SectionCreate an ideal culture for your team
Organizational culture defines the way that a team interacts and works. Typically, culture is set by an organization’s leaders, but it should be developed with input from everyone in the company. If everyone feels they are part of shaping the culture, they’ll be more likely to live and incorporate that culture into all facets of their work.
Organizations should live by their values, reinforce them every day, and not tolerate behavior that is at odds with the agreed-upon culture. Encourage your organization’s leadership to organize a company off-site to focus on culture. Learn about what workplace culture is, why it matters, and how to define it.
