The Human Optimization Project: Creating Winning Cultures

The Human Optimization Project: Creating Winning Cultures | Building and Maintaining an Optimal Culture for Teams and Individuals

Host: Christopher L. Camp, M.D.

Guest: Christina K. Zorn

“Culture” is a word that gets a lot of attention, and deservedly so! It is often thought of as the lifeblood of an organization. However, many of us don’t think about the fact that “culture” doesn’t just exist at the level of large organizations. Culture exists for smaller groups, teams, families, and even individuals. In today’s episode, we will work to define “culture”, discuss its impact on groups (large and small) and individuals, provide real world examples of the impact of culture, and discuss ways of optimizing culture in both the workplace and at home.

The three big questions we will tackle in this episode are:
1) What exactly is “culture” and why is it so critical to success?

2) How does “culture” impact behavior and outcomes at work and at home?

3) What steps can I take to contribute to a positive culture in the workplace and for my own personal development?

To help us answer these questions, my guest today is Christina K. Zorn, who is the Chief Administrative Officer of Mayo Clinic.
