When culture slows their teams down and makes work more difficult than it should be, people often start panicking and finally give it the attention it deserves. But even then, it's often with the mindset of "Let's fix it asap and get back to work!" But what if culture was the work, especially for leaders? What if it was their primary responsibility to create an environment where people can do their best work? 2022-02-231h 05
