Defining Workplace Culture
Workplace culture refers to your company’s shared values and personality — i.e., behaviors, attitudes, belief systems, mission, vision, and more. Culture is based on strong beliefs that are held widely by the company. The company’s structure should support culture through its guidelines and policies.
Everything from your leadership and management teams to your staff and workplace communications impacts company culture. For instance, a company with a management team that isn’t listening to employees’ needs will have a poor company culture. Conversely, a
strong company culture in a workplace environment encourages an open-door policy and supports feedback and open communication.
Essentially, a company’s values and priorities should be engrained into the culture. According to Indeed, healthy company culture should also hold each individual accountable for their behaviors, treat staff equally, allow workers to express themselves adequately. It’s also important to lead with open communication by recognizing and rewarding employee successes.
