In episode 44, we welcome workplace culture expert Colin D. Ellis, an award-winning keynote speaker and the best-selling author of Culture Fix: How to Create a Great Place to Work and Detox your Culture: Deliver results, retain staff, and strengthen your organisation's reputation. 

Colin and I discuss why a great organisational culture is so important - ensuring people can flourish no matter what they do - and why it so often goes wrong. 

We unpack:

1. The three stages of toxic culture - combative, corrosive, and harmful.
2. Why so many businesses are shifting to a ‘behaviours-first' management approach.
3. The key factors for designing culture change strategy.

Annette Sloan and I sum-up the three biggest takeaways from my conversation with Colin, and we answer a listener's question from Emily about difficulties interviewing with a colleague at her organisation.

Tune in to learn how to apply behavioural science frameworks and tools to any problem you, your team or organisation are facing.
