Building Culture as a Product

Early stage HR leaders should approach building culture and their work like a product. This involves creating a roadmap for 18 months with quarterly goals based on understanding employees' pain points. By getting buy-in from the team and codifying the roadmap, even if people disagree with the order of priorities, they understand the methodology and can anticipate the progress. This approach aligns culture-building with business outcomes and ensures everyone knows their role in achieving the company's mission.
