Do You Have An Emotional Culture Strategy?

Podcast with Assoc. Prof. Mandy O'Neill

DELIVERED BY The Wellbeing Lab

Mandy O’Neill is an associate professor of management at the George Mason University School of Business. Mandy’s research focuses on how conceptualizing organizational culture as a function of emotions and gender enhances the link between culture and a number of individual teams, organizational processes, and outcomes, including decision making, attitudes, career success, health behavior, corporate strategy, and financial performance. Her research has been featured in journal and media publications all over the world.

In this week’s episode, we explore why leaders and teams need to invest in creating healthy emotional cultures and the practical steps they can take based on the latest research in workplaces.
