Coffee with Tamara


Aug 13, 2019

What is your company’s culture? If you can’t define your company culture, how do you know if it even exists, or if it’s working or not? The truth is, every company has a culture — it just may not be the one that you want. So how can you stop killing your company culture? Tabitha Laser joins me on this episode to explain what it means to have a successful culture.

 

Tabitha is a coach, consultant, and keynote speaker with 25 years of experience in a variety of industries, including oil and gas, energy, chemical, manufacturing, and government. She is also the author of the newly released book, Organization Culture Killers, which reveals how leaders can build cultures of success.

 

Not having clear expectations, not being able to communicate, poor leadership — these are the top three culture killers and Tabitha shares why they so often lead to toxic cultures within an organization. Tabitha reveals her tools for communicating more effectively and being better listeners. From what people are doing with their fingers or their feet, paying attention to body language can help you communicate better! We also discuss the three aspects to think about when making any decision within the company: people, public, and performance, and the difference between management and leadership skills. Tune in to find out more about why a culture of ignorance could be hurting your company, and some surprising culture killers you wouldn’t even have imagined.
