Karen Bowen, Change Healthcare’s Culture Champion joins us and asks the question, “If you're not having fun, what are you doing?” You don't have to live painfully!

Cultivating culture takes commitment! Company, Team, Individual! These must be ALIGNED! Ensure everyone knows your vision & core values! Cultivating culture begins with being passionate about it and realizing what you bring to it!

Bad culture? Look in the mirror FIRST! Leaders, are we trying to make a name for ourselves, or seeking to understand what we're walking into, who we're leading, and how to help people find their role (their seat on the bus)?

Observe! Speaking of remote workforce and engaging them with culture, Karen created the formula! The Satellite Lounge! What does it do? A satellite COMMUNICATES!

Keep culture top of mind:

- SWAG,

- Video clip out there,

- Personal emails, "Come Join Us In The Lounge",

- Podcast: "Remotely Interesting"

Even though watercoolers don't exist, have you created your "Virtual Watercooler"? Karen’s contribution to culture brought friends together! Their mascot, Lizzie, brought so much joy!!

TAKE OWNERSHIP,

START SOMETHING, &

STICK WITH IT!

Does your company allow, encourage and support the people trying to bring color to your culture?!

Karen wraps us up with this powerful thought: “Culture isn't a slick slogan on the wall; it always has and always will be about the people!”
