Culture is what happens when the boss is not
around.
![Page 11: IMPACT's Culture Code](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022021419/586e73dc1a28ab99598b5655/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
When a company has a great culture, the people have clear
alignment on where the organization is going
and do what’s right in any situation.always

They’re doing what they’re best at every day. They’re trusted to do their work, they feel purpose in
their work, and they’re developing mastery.
