 

This episode, Lucinda talks to award-winning author, management consultant, keynote speaker, and executive educator, Mario Moussa. In his new book, 'The Culture Puzzle: Find the Solution, Energize Your Organization', Mario describes a step-by-step process for creating sustainable business cultures. Mario joins Lucinda to discuss his process, and to explain why redesigning culture should be at the forefront of every organisation's thinking, going forward.

Key Takeaways 
Many think culture remains static when implemented, but it is constant flux - always adapting and changing as the business moves and grows.
Start having conversations about how you would ideally like to work with others, defining your critical values, and crucially, listen to the responses. Additionally, listening is key.
When forces in any branch of life (organisations, society, workplaces) clash, they push against each other and impede progress on either side. Furthermore, this can lead to a stasis - a stalemate.
Lastly, the three basic needs we all have as people in the workplace are to be connected to others, to have meaningful work, and to be recognised for that work.
