Colin discusses the ways in which businesses can move from a culture of dependency to interdependency - the holy grail of positive culture.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Processes allow us to grow and scale and thrive as a business. By establishing these, we make huge improvements and positively impact growth.
• People are they key assets in growth. We need to make better use of the people themselves. Listen to their voices, and create a new sense of interdependency, instead of a management -led approach.

BEST MOMENTS

'If we're going to grow and scale we need to get some structure'

'As we grow, we become more reliant on people'
