E78: You Carry Your Culture With You

Who wouldn’t want to be working for a company with the type of culture that’s kind and collaborative? If you are nodding your head, then you most likely relate to the vibes of that company - and you have that culture inside of you. You will then carry that with you, no matter where you go. 

Here are some power takeaways from today’s conversation:

• Figuring out different company cultures

• Culture is everyone’s responsibility

• Carrying culture with you

Episode Highlights:

[01:12] Identifying with the Culture That’s Already Within You

When you love what you’re doing in the company and you’ve already identified with it, then that culture is already within you. 

[01:24] Asking About a Company’s Culture

As you go and interview places, you're going to want to ask around if they’ve got a happy culture and what way is it reflected. A good way to find out about a company’s culture is to ask the interviewers themselves. 

[02:00] Everyone’s Responsibility

Fundamentally, culture is everyone's responsibility, for people to play a part in, and whether they want to cultivate it or not. And so, whether you’re a ray of sunshine or you wish to be cynical, whatever you do can impact the culture of the organization.

[02:19] Carrying Culture with You

By taking part in a company’s culture, then you’re also part of its growth. And so, even if you’ve already left the company, it’s still something that you can always take out of your back pocket whenever you need it. You’re carrying that culture with you and it’s with you wherever you go.
