• How are you enhancing the culture?
I learned years ago that leadership
isn’t just what you do but what you
allow. Where are you allowing leaders
to operate counter to the culture you
are trying to create? Leaders at any
level of the org chart need to be able
to identify the areas and people who
are toxic to the plan, who create gray
and monochrome environments, who
keep others from thriving. You have to
pinpoint the issues and make changes.
