In this brief presentation, Sean Glaze tackles the often‑vague term “workplace culture.” He notes that a simple Google search yields billions of results, yet the core definition can be distilled to a single sentence: culture is the sum of behaviors that are allowed and repeated within an organization. Glaze argues that culture is a direct reflection of leadership and determines how effectively a company’s strategy is executed. Consequently, to improve culture, leaders should focus on shaping which behaviors are permitted and reinforced. The talk ends with a call‑to‑action for groups to engage him for events or coaching to work on cultural change.

What exactly is workplace culture? Very, very common term, but it's also very vague. In fact, if you were to Google workplace culture, you're going to find 9 billion results to try and define what culture is or give you information. And when I have an event, whether it's a speaking event or a team-building event, or if I'm working as a coach for a group of leaders, I'll always share that culture, if you think about it, is always evidence of your leadership. Culture determines how well your strategy is implemented, but at its core, the most simple definition I can provide is that culture is the sum of behaviors that are allowed and repeated in your organization. So if you want to improve your culture, you focus upon the behaviors that are allowed and repeated. If you'd like to do that, let's talk about an event for your group. I'm Sean Glaze. That's what effective leaders do.
