Steering Corporate Culture: The Critical Role of the Board of Directors

The board of directors has a crucial role to play in the cultural health of an organisation. Culture is - after all - the way that a company delivers against its targets and yet, boards are still too passive when it comes to culture.Recent high profile culture failures at the CBI, Post Office and Prince Edward Island University demonstrate the role that boards have in not only ensuring that the health of employees is paramount, but that they safeguard company reputation and results too.In this episode we discuss the role of boards in relation to culture and talk about the actions they need to take to ensure that value is continually developed to prevent their culture from making it into the media.---Join us as we reveal strategies to close the gap and craft a workplace where values are not just spoken, but lived and breathed, paving the way for a more authentic and engaging organisational culture.Instagram: @insideoutcultureEmail your questions to: insideoutculture@gmail.comReceive the Culture Leaders Action Sheet: bit.ly/iocpmail
