Crystallize My Understanding of Culture

 John Ruh  


John helped me crystallize my understanding of culture and the importance it is to our company’s success. A company’s culture is an understanding of shared values and beliefs by its employee and leadership team. A strong culture encourages employees to be innovative, solve for the customer, and encourages continual learning and exploration. Culture can’t be forced or dictated by upper management but supporting a healthy culture and nurturing its growth or initiating changes, should be as important of a goal as improving revenue. In fact, a healthy and supportive culture can be the key part of an organization’s long-term success.
