Cultivating Culture

The culture of an organization is an abstract, immaterial thing—yet culture is very real, and it’s monumentally important for that organization’s health, happiness, and success. An organization’s culture is important for employee satisfaction and other "soft" factors, but it also makes a difference on the bottom line and quarterly reports—and in ways both more specific and more significant than you might imagine. In this Red Letter Publishing Professional Series anthology, our authors offer their measured suggestions for how you can cultivate a healthy, forward-thinking culture in your own organization. Like any matter of value, a good culture requires time and investment—but it needn’t be as complex as brain surgery. For more industry insights from seasoned professionals, see our other Professional Series anthologies, such as 2016’s Evolution of Human Resources. Knowledge is power—and now the knowledge is in your hands.
