Stan Slap on the Art of Building Effective Employee Cultures

Stan Slap is the founder and president of SLAP, an international consulting firm that helps organisations get maximum commitment from their manager, employee, and customer cultures. SLAP has worked with the who's-who of the Fortune 500, companies that you've heard of like Costco, Oracle, HP, Caterpillar, Microsoft, Amazon, General Electric, Intel, Viacom, Tesla, Glassdoor, Warner Music Group — and some companies that you haven't; all told, SLAP has worked with companies doing business in 44 countries. Stan is also the author of two books: Under The Hood and Bury My Heart in Conference Room B.

This podcast dives into Slap's ideas about understanding, managing and shaping effective employee cultures. His model for culture is the first coherent model that I've found that is useful and tested at scale; it is therefore more powerful than most other formulations of employee culture that you'll find.
