Research shows that when employees have a powerful and consistent experience of an organization’s culture, they are more engaged, productive, and committed to staying longer. This experience hinges on the daily actions of people leaders, who play a crucial role in shaping and delivering this cultural experience. However, many people leaders lack the necessary tools and knowledge to effectively deliver an inspiring experience of culture in the course of day-to-day business. Equipping people leaders to model and reinforce the culture is not just beneficial - it’s essential. In today’s fast-paced and hybrid work environments, the leaders who make the most impact are those who not only shape the culture but also actively champion it, ensuring it aligns seamlessly with organizational goals. Empowering your leaders to become these cultural carriers is the key to driving success in this new era. In this 90-minute Think Tank, CLA’s Culture Practice will focus on equipping your people leaders to effectively deliver your organization’s culture. Our team will share a research-backed methodology to equip and empower leaders to deliver their culture to their in-person, remote, or hybrid teams, recognizing its crucial role in high performance and retention. Through interactive discussions and reflective exercises, participants will gain actionable insights to enhance leaders’ understanding of company culture and values, equipping them to embody these values, deliver a values-aligned experience to their teams, and foster a culture that drives success in today’s hybrid work environments. This session is intended for executives, board members, investors, HR professionals, and people leaders dedicated to shaping and sustaining organizational culture. Join us on September 19th, 12 – 1:30 pm ET, for this powerful conversation on leading with values. Register here: http://tiny.cc/d21izz
