The foundations of a healthy culture

Keynote talk by Graham Lowe, UBC Okanagan Health Symposium, 8 February 2008.

Successful organizations have healthy cultures that all employees help to build. Graham’s keynote will outline the building blocks of healthy cultures. Drawing on wide-ranging research and practical experience, Graham will describe how healthy cultures are created and sustained. He will explore issues such as the role of values and the importance of living the organization’s values through every interaction you have with colleagues and students. He also will answer the question: “How does culture matter for employees’ quality of work life and organizational success?” Graham’s presentation will challenge the audience to reflect on their personal role in building a healthy culture that will energize UBC Okanagan for years to come.
