CULTURE
“CULTURE ISN’T A FOOSBALL TABLE. IT
ISN’T A PAINTBALL OUTING IN THE FOREST.
[…] THE BEST CULTURES DERIVE FROM
THE ACTIONS PEOPLE ACTUALLY TAKE, NOT
THE ONES THEY WRITE ABOUT IN A
MISSION STATEMENT. NEWCOMERS TO AN
ORGANIZATION ARRIVE WITH THEIR EYES
OPEN. THEY SEE HOW DECISIONS ARE
MADE, THE CARE THAT’S TAKEN, THE WAY
PROBLEMS ARE SOLVED AND SO FORTH.”
