Understanding organisational culture with Themba Chakela

A lot of us may have heard of the term "organisational culture" but might have a vague understanding of what exactly it is and how it affects our experience at work.

I sat down with the Head of People, Culture and Change at e-motion Consulting, Themba Chakela to demystify what organisational culture is.

Sure, the pizzas and drinks on a Friday afternoon are great for camaraderie and team morale but this discussion with Themba shows that it takes vision, intentionality and consistency to build a workplace culture that is healthy and productive.

Themba has two decades of "people" experience. His roles have ranged from tactical delivery, strategic planning, capability creation and organisational effectiveness advisory.
