Leadership Series: How to Identify a Positive, Values-Based Organizational Culture
Jan 22, 2024 Season 2 Episode 1
Taylor Peyton, Ph.D., senior organizational psychologist for BiasSync, and co-founder of Mojo Moments

If you have ever worked in a toxic workplace, you have learned the hard way that dysfunctional organizational cultures are harmful and hinder employee performance. Taylor Peyton, Ph.D., senior organizational psychologist for BiasSync, and co-founder of Mojo Moments, defines organizational culture as “a force, both visible and invisible, that massively influences employee behavior and an organization’s chance of success.” Telltale signs of a good, thriving work culture go well beyond a company’s stocked kitchen, modern office lounges, flexible work schedules, and other perks.    

Learn in this podcast how to see beneath a company's shiny veneer by looking for factors that reveal the company's true self (warts and all) and find out practical steps leaders can take to cultivate a positive organizational culture.  

This episode is the first in the Distinguished Leadership Series where we share perspectives from experts from various fields and from around the world on learning to identify and develop a positive, values-based leadership style that motivates employees and propels company success. 


The “Distinguished” podcast is produced by Boston University School of Hospitality Administration.
