What is Team Culture and Why is it Important?

Team culture is a shared approach to work based on beliefs, values, and attitudes. In a nutshell, the culture is simply “how and why we do things at work”. It highlights what’s most important to a company and impacts every part of a business. Team culture can make or break a company. A healthy team culture fosters collaboration and motivates employees, but a bad or toxic team culture leads to high turnover and other problems.

5 Signs of a Toxic Team Culture:

Never-Ending Gossip and Drama
Poor Team Attitudes
Lack of Proper Work Ethic
