The idea of workplace culture has been buzzy for a while now and it’s very common for employees to list "a positive company culture" as the number one requirement for their workplace. On this episode, we talk about impact that a company’s culture can have on how people feel about their workplace, how company culture is shaped and evolves, and what you can do if you don’t feel aligned with your company’s culture.
Key Takeaways:
Leadership defines and frames a company’s culture. We ALL create culture every day.
How culture is perceived is completely relative; it’s not about a good or bad culture but what is healthier/unhealthier for you at any given time in your working life.
Be clear and intentional about what you are looking for. Check for behaviours as well as stated values.
Determine how much weight you are putting on the importance of fit and how much weight you are putting on the other factors that are important to you.
