Episode 3: Your Team's Culture Is Not What You Think It Is!
What is your team's culture actually rewarding right now? Not what you hope it rewards. Not what the mission statement says.
In this episode of Season 2, Episode 3 - Your Team's Culture Is Not What You Think It Is!
Dr. Keena challenges leaders to examine the gap between the culture they believe they are building and the culture their team is actually experiencing. Using the LAUNCH TO IMPACT principle of Understanding the Power of Culture, she unpacks how behaviors like perfectionism, cynicism, overcontrol, and people-pleasing quietly erode the trust and honesty that healthy teams need.
This episode will push you to stop auditing your intentions and start auditing your impact. Dr. Keena offers three practical ways to examine your culture this week and reminds leaders that culture cannot be delegated. If you want to change it, start by examining what you are modeling.
Key Takeaways
The Culture Gap Is Real and Costly β There is often a measurable distance between what leaders intend for their team's culture and what team members actually experience. Closing that gap starts with honest self-examination.
Your Self-Protective Behaviors Shape the Culture β These patterns may feel protective, but they become culture killers when left unchecked.
Culture Is Audited Through Behavior, Not Statements β This week, try asking your team what it feels like to work on your team, in a real conversation, not a survey. Pay attention to what actually gets rewarded with recognition, attention, and opportunity. And examine which self-protective behavior you default to under pressure. That is your real culture audit.
