Happy Monday! Culture is not created only through major initiatives, important meetings, or words displayed on a wall. It is created through the everyday moments people experience: How we respond. How we communicate. How we handle challenges. How we make others feel. As you begin this week, choose one word to describe the culture you want to help create. My word is: intentional. 💬 What is your word for the week, and why did you choose it? “Culture is always being created. Let’s create it on purpose.” — Dr. Stephanie Duguid

When people describe workplace culture, they often talk about values, expectations, or policies. But culture is also something people feel. Think about the healthiest workplace, team, school, or organization you have experienced. 💬 What did that healthy culture feel like, and what specific leadership behaviors helped create it? What specific leadership behaviors helped create that feeling? There are no perfect answers. Let’s learn from one another’s experiences. https://www.loom.com/share/46d45c6bfeca47b9804563e68540fdca

Thank you to everyone who participated in our first Leadership Roundtable or shared feedback online in response to a post, in a chat, or directly with me. One thing is already clear: this community will become stronger because of the voices, experiences, and ideas represented here. This week, I would also like to invite each Founding Member to think of one leader who would add encouragement, insight, and positive energy to our community. Not ten people. Just one thoughtful invitation. Someone who believes: 💜 People matter. 💜 Communication matters. 💜 Culture matters. Tag them, send them the community link, or personally invite them to join us. 💬 What quality do you believe makes someone a valuable community member? — Stephanie

Culture is not something other people create around us. Each of us influences it through the way we communicate, connect, respond, and lead. 🎙️ Our first Leadership Roundtable is tomorrow at noon Central. The link is already available in the community calendar. This is not a meeting with an agenda. This is a community coming together to share thoughts; Bring your ideas, experiences, and honest feedback as this community is for you! 💬 Before tomorrow, complete this sentence: A strong leadership community should feel __________. I cannot wait to read the comments…. Your input matters, and your voice matters! I welcome you to this space. Let’s continue to Create Culture on Purpose https://www.loom.com/share/863324e5f1c646eaa64b86a5a6fa3f85
