While a positive company culture can lead to higher productivity, sales and fewer absences at work, a poor one can lead to bullying, harassment and reduce overall productivity. Culture has a value, it is the key to success for every organisation. New book Culture Fix: How to Create a Great Place to Work shows how this culture can make the difference.

Colin D Ellis has worked with companies all over the world including Red Bull, Thomson Reuters and in New Zealand and Australia’s government to help them transform their cultures – from boosting happiness at work to tackling harassment and bullying - in order to improve productivity and employee experience. In a competitive jobs market, this is essential to attracting – and retaining – top talent. As flexible and remote working is becoming the norm, he reveals how to ensure this doesn’t negatively impact the drive, cohesion, shared purpose and innovation of teams.
