Key Takeaways:

• Organizational culture supports the collective leadership culture that exists within the organization. ~Judith Germain [05:41]

• The distinguishing factor between a company that thrives with a good culture and one that doesn’t is humanity, which serves as the connecting piece between leadership and culture. ~Kindra Maples [07:01]

• The benefit of having a culture that has leaders in it rather than just employees is that the decision-making is faster, people take ownership and accountability, and there’s zero tolerance towards toxic behavior. This ultimately leads to higher client satisfaction. ~Judith Germain [09:46]

• The main characteristic of a toxic workplace is burnout. ~Catherine Mattice [14:29]

• Compassion plays a crucial role in creating a positive and productive workplace environment. ~Kindra Maples [33:16]
