What culture do you develop?

| As a leader have you considered the culture you want in your organization? A culture of an organization is determined by the behaviors and perceptions of your people.
Consider, how your people treat your customers, how they treat each other, what their perception of your suppliers is, or more importantly, what do they think of the leaders and managers?

As an observer of an organization, it is very easy to identify the culture, one visit to a store, one interaction with the sales team, or customer service department will provide you with an indication of what is happening in that organization. |
