Signs of a “healthy” organizational culture are –
1. A clear, written,
and regularly communicated organizational vision, mission, and values
that inspires people into action
2. High morale
and being considered to be a top employer of choice
3. A sense of personal
responsibility and accountability with a can-do attitude, a desire to be
pro-active versus re-active, and a habit of looking for “what’s right’ versus ‘what’s
wrong’
4. Great teamwork
with people looking for ways to help their team members
5. A feeling of empowerment and an attitude of
being able to be creative and to learn from
mistakes, in order
to invent new ways of doing things.
6. Trust at all levels, built on an attitude
of integrity, clear communications, and an appreciation
for the value of coaching
employees, versus directing them.
