Cultivating success by helping businesses, schools and nonprofits prioritize workplace culture for better employee and customer experiences. Happier people = thriving cultures.

This article has some great insights that I wanted to share today. I have pulled out some key points and takeaways for those busy readers out there and I would further add this call out: ➡ As Peter Druker famously said, “culture eats strategy for breakfast.” Ensuring that your strategic goals are in harmony with your workplace culture goals is critical to business success. Key points and takeaways: ➡ “Gartner’s survey of HR leaders on their priorities for 2024 revealed organizational culture to be among the top five priorities for the first time, second only to leader and manager development.” ➡ “Culture exists whether you pay attention to it or not, and if left unattended, it can and likely will shape you rather than you shaping it.” ➡ “The key is being intentional and making incremental changes to guide your organization in the right direction.” ➡ “…the culture that’s right for any organization depends on its mission, vision and business goals.” ➡ “The chief human resources officer should work closely with the CEO to define the desired culture and then drive efforts to achieve it. “ ➡ “…the HR department has a priority role and responsibility in stacking the building blocks of a strong, positive culture.” ➡ “When shared values permeate an organization’s culture, they can create a true north—guiding how employees interact and work together.” ➡ “With trust, teams can collaborate openly by sharing different perspectives.” ➡ “…leadership must clearly define and communicate the values and behaviors that shape their organization. They must then model those values in their own words and actions every single day.” ➡ “…culture is the glue that binds teams together, becoming the fuel that powers organizations forward.” ➡ “At a time of global crisis, a strong culture made all the difference.” https://lnkd.in/g8BNqiyZ
