Episode 30 - Nerding Out About Culture in the Workplace with Mike Bensi

In Episode 30, Mike Bensi and I nerd out about the importance of culture in the workplace. As we dive deep on the topic we talk about the importance of routinely assessing culture and studying what the key drivers of culture might be. In Mike's experience there are many things that impact culture, but the big ones are:

• trust in leadership
• communication
• clarity of goal
• opportunity to contribute and make an impact
• having the resources you need to do your job
• opportunities for growth and development

 

Mike helps organizations build strategies that transform their culture and employees, as well as the leaders who support them.

 

Fueled by his dedication to help develop stronger relationships between leaders and their employees, Mike trains leaders on the importance of culture, putting employees first and the role leaders play in accomplishing both. 

 

Mike’s favorite question for clients is, “How can I help you?” and he uses the answer to help leaders develop people-centered strategies they can implement right away.

 

Mike brings a diverse background to his work, including past roles with small companies, global organizations and government.  These experiences have given him the platform to personally understand the needs of clients and how to best meet them.

 

Mike is the author of The Success of Failure (2017), and is a sought-after keynote speaker on employee engagement, HR, and leadership. He holds a bachelor’s degree in psychology from the University of Illinois, and an MBA from the Indiana University Kelley School of Business. He is also currently a MBA leadership coach at Butler University in Indianapolis, IN. 

 

Mike serves his community at HEAR Indiana and lives near Indianapolis, IN with his wife and three children.
