Why should your organisation consider having a strengths-based culture? Dr Amanda Potter with her host Angela Malik explore how strengths play a critical role in both personal satisfaction and organisational success in an inclusive environment.  They discuss the importance of diversity in the context of organisational culture with examples how certain companies holding onto corporate traditions see significant problems in their business. As usual, the topics will be approached from a psychological and neuroscientific perspective as well as through personal and professional experiences.
