Or, as I prefer to say, these companies understand how to attract top talent and reduce team turnover.

Dr. Joey’s guests today create a positive work culture that lives on this higher level AND in an industry you may not think of right away as having many positive work cultures—the construction industry.

The C-suite says, “You just can’t find good people anymore.” And “the people” who consider themselves “good” say, “I just want a manager who knows how to lead.”

The reality is it takes everyone working together to create a positive work culture. And yet someone has to start the transformation, clarify the way forward. 

And that’s leadership’s responsibility, according to Lyndsay Dowd, Dr. Joey’s guest on this episode of the Work Positive Podcast. Lyndsay is an Apple News Top 10 Coach and author of Top Down Culture: Revolutionizing Leadership to Drive Results. She says leaders best take responsibility for culture transformation as they:

🌞 emphasize self-awareness that shifts from egocentric to collaborative approaches.

🌞 engage with team members to understand and meet their individual needs.

🌞 embrace and understand generational differences as key to a diverse, inclusive, and psychologically safe culture.
