Building a Positive Culture Within a Company
Creating a positive culture within a company requires a combination of top-down and bottom-up efforts. Leaders play a crucial role in setting the culture and behaviors by leading by example. Organically, employees can contribute by forming collectives or tribes that take initiative and foster a positive culture. Rituals and deliberate actions can also reinforce the desired culture.
