Since most startups operate at a break-neck pace, with a concept to prove or a product to launch within a rapidly shortening runway of financing, company culture often gets shoved aside. This is a big, big mistake: Nobody serious about their business should put culture in the corner.

Corporate culture matters. How management chooses to treat its people impacts everything - for better or for worse.

Positive culture comes from being mindful, and respecting your coworkers, and being empathetic.

It all sounds almost silly, but the fact is that the only way to change a corporate culture is to just change it.

There's a kind of numbness, a sameness, a lack of motivation in 'good job' culture.

Having a few companies controlling everything we read, see or hear is destroying our culture.

Developing a good, healthy culture is extremely important at a startup. Culture reflects the essence of a startup's operation because it directly affects the success of a company's hiring practices and overall strategy.

It seems like those of us who run a business can't go five minutes without encountering the term "company culture." The phrase is always uttered with extreme adoration, yet the very concept seems as nebulous as it is elusive.

Conservatives frequently complain of being frozen out of the culture industry, though, like all industries, the culture industry will produce or sell anything it expects to profit from.

It's very, very hard to affect culture. And you can get surprised thinking you're farther down the path of change than you really are because, frankly, most of us like the way things are.
