How would you describe your organization's corporate culture? How can you change or define it? Why is it so important? What can leaders do to establish a positive workplace culture?

In a recent Forbes post, the author references an article in the MIT Management Review that drives this point home: “It is not enough to try to shape attitudes or develop and communicate a set of values; leaders must ensure that incentives reinforce desired behaviors. All of the important people processes—recruitment, assessment, performance management, and development—must be carefully assessed and consistently modified to drive the desired culture.”

Read on for a case study from Databricks and please share any examples of what your company does to create and reinforce its corporate culture.
