In this episode, Nate and Daniel define what culture actually is (and isn’t), explain why it’s the most important thing most owners ignore, and share a short exercise you can do today to see where your company culture stands.

This series is for owners who want a team that solves problems instead of creating them… and a studio where people love coming to work.
