What do you imagine when you think of corporate culture? Let me tell you what image pops up in everyone's minds. But as I keep working on improving the dynamics and helping businesses fix the image.

Values are the beliefs that are used when intentionally designing a high-performance culture. Values show up when highlighting an individual's performance in daily staff meetings, town halls and promotion emails by leaders. Values show up each and every day in action.
