Listen "Creating Exceptional Team Culture, Part 1"
Episode Synopsis
Every group of humans who spend time together develops a group culture — a set of behavioral or attitudinal norms. These norms become the group’s default way of being — the way they are without even thinking about it.
See where I’m going?
When it comes to our teams, building culture — common behaviors and practices — intentionally, helps us create the culture we want. The culture that makes for a happy team and happy business results.
This week and next, we’re talking about how to build exceptional team culture.
How you, as a leader, can create moments that show your team how to handle the situation in front of them, but also help them make exceptional decisions in the future that reinforce the culture you’re building.
Thanks for listening.
