September 17, 2025 @ 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm CDT

Every good organization has a strategic plan. However, the success of that plan is highly dependent on your organization’s culture. A strong culture motivates employees to work harder and find ways past obstacles. So how can culture be developed and shaped to increase everyone’s motivation?

In this webinar, you will learn:

  • A specific definition of culture and how it shapes an organization
  • The six direct and indirect factors that determine motivation
  • How a group of cultural “Firewatchers” can shape your culture
  • Strategies to grow a strong culture and keep it thriving
