Listen "Culture Scaling Playbook: Values [S7.E1]"
Episode Synopsis
What is a high-performing culture? It's a question some think as straightforward as it is philosophical. In these special episodes, we explore high performing cultures; what they are, how to create them, and most importantly how to not just maintain them, but scale them.
By drawing upon the wisdom of the previous CEOs, founders, leaders who I have had the pleasure of interviewing over the last six years between them have created some $150b in market capitalisation. After 42 episodes of Scaling Up and 300,000 words of transcripts we now have a database of knowledge to dive into to pull some common threads together.
This first episode of the Culture Scaling Playbook is wholly dedicated to the role values play in successfully scaling people and culture; why they are important, how they have to be at the centre of every decision made and every behaviour exhibited in a business and importantly how best to do this.
Chapters:
(02:00) High performance in teams
(04:18) What is culture - the triangle framework
(07:18) Link between effective cultures and exceptional business results
(13:02) Values and when they get formalised
(21:35) Living the valuies and codifying them
(26:13) Values and hiring - from interviews to onboarding
(34:25) Can you refresh or change your values?
(37:07) The wrap up
