This course is highly recommended. The topics included are practical and easy to apply. The way the topics are organized is also very helpful. The time allotted for this course is about right.
The speaker is very good and engaging. He sounds enthusiastic. The exercises that he provided are also very good. This course will helpful to anybody regardless of level in the organization.
A very well structured course providing insight into how to move an organization from unmotivated clock watchers to high performance first/fast followers of a new corporate vision. Truly highlights the wide gap between companies with poor leadership and those that inspire their employees with a shared vision they can support.
This course emphasized the importance of being intentional in defining your culture. The course provided good examples and a lot of excellent worksheets that can be used as you go through the process of defining your specific high performance culture with your team.
very informative and it reaches set objective. We always know what Culture in a company is and see the need of improving it but how to go about doing that is always the challenge. The course offers a step by step process on how to do that, which is excellent!
Presentation is well organized, logically presented and accurately supported by slides. Speaker is thoughtful and well spoken. While not particularly inspiring, his apparent intellectual interest in the subject helps to engage the listener.
We've been making the transition to being a more people-centric organization and the results have been great so far - this has some useful info about corporate culture that can help make your organization more people-centric.
Interested, cohesive and actionable materials, very well presented by Mr. Swedish. He is clearly knowledgeable and experienced in, and passionate about, this all-important foundation of organizational success.
A highly recommended course for new as well as seasoned leaders who are in the phase of building a team. The course provides practical examples and fruit for thoughts to create a culture of high performance.
This was a terrific class. It provides a very good blueprint to enable leaders to define a new culture within their teams. I will be utilizing this as I look to transform my team at a new employer.
I liked the content of the course, as well as the flow of the content. Each section really built on the other. I believe that this course would add value to both new and established leaders.
It was interesting to hear about the different team levels as well as the different aspects of high performance cultures. The step by step creation makes you think about what you would do.
This course was all encompassing, covering what culture is, why it's important and how to improve it. The worksheets provide tangible steps for moving towards a high-performance culture.
Great discussion of building a culture. This class was very practical - it defined how to think about the culture, how to implement the ideas and how to monitor and update the culture.
Interesting course. Makes one realize that while there are common themes for success, changing culture within established companies is a very real (and often very difficult) challenge.
This course provides some nice tools to take concrete actions toward improving culture. I enjoyed the first follower video and other examples provided throughout to illustrate concepts.
This course contains a meaningful plan for changing oraganization culture, which is rare in my experience. Other courses speak mostly about leadership, but it is not enough.
Over all a bit lenghty, interesting subject but a bit too long over two hours, I would have appreciated more real life examples instead of multiple definitions
