You’ve heard the adage, “Culture eats strategy for breakfast.” It’s true. We need to acknowledge that if our organizational culture is unhealthy, we will struggle to get our work done. Intentionally building a positive staff culture that reflects the organization’s stated values and beliefs, and is aligned with our strategy, is the pathway to building a resilient and thriving organization.

Organizational culture is the shared values, beliefs, customs, and practices that are part of everyday life in an organization. It effects all operations within an organization. A resilient organization has a shared agreement with the employee that we work together to bring to life our stated values by realizing them in our norms, behaviors, customs, and practices.

This webinar, the third session in the Workforce Well-Being and Resilience learning series explores the ingredients of a positive staff culture, and the steps needed to achieve it. Learn strategies for bringing our organizational values into daily interactions, achieving clear and realistic boundaries and expectations, and aligning our culture and strategy to build resilience and success.
