Work culture is defined as “the beliefs, customs, and behaviour of a group of people within a work environment”. What is your work culture? How does it affect the people working for you and with you? The environment we set up and the language we use, tells our staff what we expect and will allow. Staff tend to leave workplaces because of the leadership. They don’t feel supported and empowered, not because of money. We will identify how we can set up our environment and our expectations for staff to feel supported and want to do their best. Let’s unpack and look at the practices and policies that define your work culture.
