Magic w/o Tricks: Avoiding the Culture-from-Hell Syndrome
Culture affects everything: creativity, productivity, quality, growth. All key to business success, happiness, and well being. Learn to shape and scale a culture that works, supports your values, and others will want to be part of.
About This Session
You should be thinking, and even obsessing about the culture you want for your startup. Culture affects everything: creativity, productivity, quality, growth. All key to business success and, just as importantly, key to happiness and well being for you, your team, and the communities around you. It is not difficult to do it right, though it is easy enough to screw it up. In this session you will learn about developing a governance structure without bureaucracy. We'll talk about how to define a cause, a vision, principles, and values in an inclusive way and without it being burdensome. We will have specific examples of real best practices that we've learned from experience. You can't legislate a culture, but you must purposefully shape it or else you may not like how it turns out.Time: 10:45 AM Sunday Room: VPA-115
