The Leadership Imperative
Culture as Your Foundation
Great leadership doesn't just engage employees; it shapes the culture that defines an organization's long-term success. Engagement reflects how employees feel about their work. Culture defines how they think, act, and innovate. When you build the right culture, engagement follows naturally.
