What Is Workplace Culture?
Workplace culture is the tone and ethos of the workplace — the environment you create for your employees. In some sense, it’s the character of your organization, and it will attract employees with the same type of character.
As you consider work culture, it’s essential to think about key factors within your business. How do employees interact with each other and with customers? How do they engage with tasks? How does leadership present the group’s mission and values? These points will have a significant impact on the overall environment at work.

How Does Culture Develop?
When you’re establishing a business, your culture defines how you do things and how you move forward. It’s about more than lip service — you want to cultivate an environment where employees can grow. A culture can simply be a default, or it can be an intentionally cultivated environment.
One of the most powerful steps you can take to build your work culture is to model it yourself, as how you live out workplace values greatly influences your employees. If they see you implementing your organization’s mission, they will feel motivated to do the same.
As people within your organization develop patterns of communication, ethics, and work styles, these elements come together to form a work culture that can impact people both inside and outside your offices.
The Impact of Company Culture
Creating a culture rather than defaulting to one can offer powerful advantages for your business. You’ll see the impacts it can have on your team and your operations in many different ways:
- Attracting the right people: A healthy, vibrant company culture attracts the right kind of candidates to your company and helps you build a team of dedicated, talented professionals.
- Increasing engagement: When you have an outstanding culture, it impacts how employees engage with their work and the team, driving employee satisfaction and retention rates.
- Boosting performance: With a more dedicated and engaged team, you get more effective communication, commitment to the work, and stronger overall performance and quality of output.
