026 - Culture of Compliance or Initiative

Welcome back Succession Seekers!

Culture is the biggest determinant of a company’s success.  You shape the culture with the behavior you model and the values you embrace.

The role of the culture is to institutionalize the values and behaviors that the business’ founders espoused to make it successful.

With the right culture ingrained in the business, it can scale and stay successful even when its founders are gone.

The good news is that culture is nigh impossible to copy and it cannot be faked. It is a way of being.

Listen to my story about companies I worked with that had cultures of compliance and cultures of initiative and why and how they chose their paths.

Question of the Day:  What type of culture are you attracted to and why?
