Five Free Audio Lessons on Culture!
Inc. Magazine brought me in to do a talk specifically on this topic. I gave them five things every business must understand about creating culture.
Those five audio lessons are available to you as part of a free download when you subscribe to this blog. If you’re already a subscriber, thank you! You’ll receive an email shortly with a download link.
I’ll send you a free audio lesson on each component of creating a healthy team culture:
- Force It: How to force good culture instead of bad culture being forced on you.

- Recognize It: People do what they’re recognized for. How to create a culture that attracts champions.
- Attack It: Got gossip? Are employees showing up late? How to be proactive and attack the bad culture.
- Repeat It: To create great culture, you have to repeat it over and over. Here’s how.
