Overview
The unspoken rules, based on shared values and beliefs, become the reality of how the organization gets work done. Employees and managers are expected to adapt and accomplish their work according to the spoken and unspoken rules of the company.
Managers and leaders are prime ambassadors of company culture.
However, they may not spend a lot of time thinking about and modeling the organization values. We will review best practices for helping manager learn to clearly communicate about their organization's culture and values, to increase their capacity to model and mentor their teams.
Why you should Attend
The average American adult spends 90,000 hours, or a third of their life, at work. Given this, job enjoyment is crucial. While job duties are a focus during the search, workplace culture often gets overlooked.
A poor culture harms well-being and company performance. Conversely, positive cultures lead to healthier, happier, more productive employees and higher company returns.
Michael McCarthy, a Harvard instructor and podcast host, emphasizes that a good job isn't just about the role, commute, or pay. It's about a company that aligns with one’s values and offers a supportive work environment.
