A lot of us may have heard of the term "organisational culture" but might have a vague understanding of what exactly it is and how it affects our experience at work.

I sat down with the Head of People, Culture and Change at e-motion Consulting, Themba Chakela to demystify what organisational culture is.

Sure, the pizzas and drinks on a Friday afternoon are great for camaraderie and team morale but this discussion with Themba shows that it takes vision, intentionality and consistency to build a workplace culture that is healthy and productive.

Themba has two decades of "people" experience. His roles have ranged from tactical delivery, strategic planning, capability creation and organisational effectiveness advisory.

On the final episode for this season, I sat down with Tantaswa Fubu CA(SA), CEO of Greatwell Consultancy for an insightful conversation on how organisations and leaders have to reimagine employee wellness for the future of work.

In this video, we explore how adopting a growth mindset can positively impact your career development and professional success.
