Have you ever been part of an organization where everyone and everything just seemed to click? People are motivated and things get done. Contrast that experience with being part of an organization that feels toxic. Demoralization, cynicism, and infighting emotionally drain the people who work within it, and dysfunction reigns.\nWhy do some organizations thrive and others flounder? My guest today argues that it all comes down to culture.\nHis name is Daniel Coyle and he\u2019s the author of the book The Culture Code: The Secrets of Highly Successful Groups. Today on the show Dan and I discuss how cultures are formed and what the famous Christmas truce during WWI can teach us about culture formation. Dan then shares the factors that create positive group cultures, including action steps you can take to implement these elements in the organizations you lead or belong to. If you\u2019re a leader in any capacity (this includes being a dad), you don\u2019t want to miss this episode.
