Business Culture Is Important!
As technology advances, software and connectivity grow, and open-source tools become de rigeur, it’s becoming easier to find tools that can fill tricky-yet-crucial roles in our processes.
We’re tapping new gold mines of scalability, automation, and compute.
But with every step forward in the world of tools – and processes – and management – there’s something that continues to stay exactly the same: the human nature of the tool users.
The team of people on the mission, and the workplace environment they create, are foundational to everything else that’s used to do our work. Culture is the primary factor.
With a strong, positive, motivated culture, more work is done.
More quality is delivered.
And more money can be made.
But can it be improved?
Can it be influenced?
Can it be changed?
Those are million-dollar questions!
ASPE’s Chris Knotts PMP (LinkedIn profile) spend the hour helping you understand the ins and outs of Business Culture.
