Rethink Culture

"We found that there are some common traits in great managers… The best ones are really good motivators… sometimes they have to make tough decisions, but they're good at influencing people by helping to convince them why they are excellent… The best practice organizations… they have a really good intentional process for developing their… highly effective managers as coaches… I think if we do things right, and we combine autonomy with great managing, great leadership, that we could have the best workplaces ever."

S03E06 of the Rethink Culture podcast shines the spotlight on Jim Harter, Gallup’s chief scientist for workplace management and well-being. Jim shares with us his extensive expertise on employee engagement and workplace culture. The author of five books, including the bestsellers It's the Manager, Wellbeing at Work and Culture Shock, Jim has led groundbreaking research, including the first large-scale study on engagement and productivity, covering 1.8 million employees across 200 organizations. With over 1,000 research studies in applied psychology and well-being, Jim’s data-driven insights are invaluable for understanding what drives organizational success.

In this episode, Jim breaks down the critical elements of a thriving workplace culture: engagement, purpose, and great leadership. He emphasizes that managers should act as coaches, leveraging employees’ strengths to align personal growth with company goals. Engagement, he stresses, must be a year-round strategy, not just an annual survey. While global engagement remains low (23% globally, 32% in the U.S.), Jim highlights that best-practice organizations achieve up to 70% engagement. Jim also talks about the evolving post-pandemic workplace, where balancing autonomy with accountability is key while tailoring approaches for hybrid and on-site teams. Central to his message is defining a clear purpose—why your organization exists—and the ability to communicate it effectively. Jim envisions workplaces where autonomy and inspiring leadership create environments where employees thrive.

“You see companies: “I'm going to put a… ping pong table in the break room… and I'm going to have a massage therapist come in and do chair massages…” Those are all nice amenities, but they aren't culture… Culture… is the force that keeps everything together… Some people never get that, they never understand this is necessary… But if… they want to stick around for a while… they need to create a workplace that the people want to come back to every single day… You're going to be alone unless you understand that the only way you create anything is through people… Do you want to do this alone? Because if so, you shouldn't even hire people… But if you want to do great things with people, you better start with people”.

"It feels good to do good with your business. I think we underestimate ourselves as businesspeople and the impact that we can have on people in the world. And we look at politicians and policy, and we look at the slow going, and the barriers to things changing. If we want a more just and equitable future, where all of us can thrive and seek opportunity, business can play an important role in doing that... It starts with caring for your people and giving them good jobs. Not jobs where you're depending on them to have less so you can have more. And frankly, the feeling that you get from that is one that I have enjoyed from the moment we opened our doors as Nest DC."

"I learned a very hard lesson in my early twenties when I was running my painting business. I had a lot of my painters quit partway through the summer and I didn't understand why they were quitting on me… I was dictating. I wasn't inspiring them. I wasn't sharing my vision with them or my goals. I wasn't treating them like teammates. I was being a dictator. And my dad said to me, Kristi, people are priority. If you don't have a great team of people, you've got nothing. So make people your priority. And so I would whisper in the ear to anyone, people are priority and play is powerful. Make people priority by having some fun with some play and because it's powerful, you'll get back a lot of value from doing so."

"If leaders are willing to be vulnerable and listen to their employees.. those are cultures which empower everyone to feel safe and to bring their whole selves to work... A lot of leaders are still trying to hide behind stuff.. and they are not sleeping well at night. The most peaceful place for a leader to be is to have stated values and then can stand in the spotlight of those values."

"I always hesitate a bit when organizations are like, happiness, happiness, happiness… because our pitfalls will never go away… I will always have those pitfalls. But if I can become conscious and intentional, then I can start to own my pitfalls instead of my pitfalls owning me. And I can start to take responsibility for them… We can talk about it together and no one ever punishes someone for being in their pitfall… We might lovingly make someone aware of it, give them feedback or encourage them… In one of our value statements we say, we see the five-year-old you and we love them, and we also lovingly support you to be bigger than that."
