Culture Do's and Don'ts

Written by Anthony Demangone

Culture.  Somehow, companies develop one.  I think we've all felt it at some point.  Perhaps you worked for a company that seemed to have a dark cloud over it.  Or one where everyone had a skip in their step. 

With that in mind, here are two interesting reads.

Do this: Eight Rules for Creating a Passionate Work Culture.

Don't do this: Seven Signs Your Culture is Dysfunctional.

I'll leave you with these questions.

  • Does your credit union have a vision of its desired workplace culture? 
  • Have you achieved that vision?
  • If yes, who is in charge of maintaining it?
  • If not, who is in charge of getting you where you need to go?  In other words, who is your Culture Czar?

Have a great weekend, guys.
