Regardless of a company’s structure, culture is built upon the foundation of shared values, and the way that those values are lived and communicated across an entire team.

In this episode, Miz, Head of Operations, sat down with Ben Grynol, Head of Growth, to discuss ways in which the Levels team can document the culture that is being developed around them.

Three videos that surfaced from the project, as of June 2021 are:

• Levels Culture Documentation Project – 1.0
• Levels Culture Documentation Project – 2.0
• Levels Culture Documentation Project – Team Shoutouts
