4. Culture is about performance, and making people feel good about
how they contribute to the whole.
-Tracy Streckenbach
Determine what behaviors and beliefs you value as a company and
have everyone live true to them. These behaviors and beliefs should
be so essential to your core, that you don’t even think of it as culture.
- Brittany Forsyth, VP of Human Relations, Shopify
5. Company Culture is the product of a company’s values, expectations
and environment.
– Courtney Chapman, Product Manager, Rubicon Project
The way I think about culture is that modern humans have radically
changed the way that they work and the way that they live.
Companies need to change the way they manage and lead to match
the way that modern humans actually work and live.
– Brian Halligan, CEO, Hubspot

12. Unfortunately, in our experience it
is far more common for leaders
seeking to build high-performing
organizations to be confounded by
culture. Indeed, many either let it
go unmanaged or relegate it to the
HR function, where it becomes a
secondary concern for the
business. They may lay out
detailed, thoughtful plans for
strategy and execution, but
because they don’t understand
culture’s power and dynamics,
their plans go off the rails. As
someone once said, culture eats
strategy for breakfast.

18. What is Psychological
safety ?
Psychological safety is
a belief that one will
not be punished or
humiliated for
speaking up with
ideas, questions,
concerns or mistakes
-Amy Edmondson
23. A “fixed mindset” , assumes that our
character, intelligence, and creative
ability are static givens which we
can’t change in any meaningful way,
and success is the affirmation of that
inherent intelligence, an assessment
of how those givens measure up
against an equally fixed standard;
striving for success and avoiding
failure at all costs become a way of
maintaining the sense of being smart
or skilled.
A “growth mindset”, on the other
hand, thrives on challenge and sees
failure not as evidence of
unintelligence but as a heartening
springboard for growth and for
stretching our existing abilities. Out of
these two mindsets, which we
manifest from a very early age,
springs a great deal of our behavior,
our relationship with success and
failure in both professional and
personal contexts, and ultimately our
capacity for happiness.
27. Amy Edmondson in her talk describe three ways to
deal with psychological safety
1. Frame the work as learning problem not an
execution ,problem recognize make explicit
that there is enormous uncertainty ahead
and enormous interdependence given
2. Acknowledge your own fallibility
3. Model curiosity – ask lots of questions that
creates a necessity for voice
Novartis Professor of Leadership and Management, Harvard Business School
