Back to this week's Curly Question.

This week's question will ask you to connect your present to clarify your future. The clue lies on what you choose to see.

We’ve discussed fulfilling leadership challenges; now let’s explore the cultural aspects of your current organisation that you appreciate.

Recognising cultural elements you appreciate helps you find organisations with similar cultures. A compatible work culture is crucial for your success and satisfaction as a leader.

Key Question to Ask:

Practical tips:

1. Identify positive elements: Reflect on the cultural aspects of your current company that you value. This could be a collaborative environment, a strong emphasis on innovation, or a commitment to employee development.
2. Understand their impact: Consider how these cultural elements have supported your leadership and contributed to your success.
3. Seek cultural fit: During your job search, look for companies that promote similar cultural values. Ask about their culture during interviews to ensure alignment.

Next time, we’ll focus on the leadership qualities in your current role that you value the most.

Keep calm and curious,

Kate
