Company Culture encompasses a variety of components such as work environment, Company Mission and Values, expectations and goals. Often these develop over time from the combination of personality traits within a company
It is important to get your Company Culture right as the values and attitudes your company is know for can influence your employees and customers.
So how do you know if you have a healthy or unhealthy company culture? Take a look around and notice how your staff act when they are at work. Are there common behaviours – either good or bad?
