Tying Culture to Strategy with Melissa Daimler, Chief Learning Officer at Udemy (Ep. 26)

Episode 26

Thursday, December 21, 2023 • Duration 28:59

Culture and strategy aren’t two ends of a spectrum. In fact, culture should be embedded into your strategy.

“I believe that culture is the ‘how.’ If you think about your vision or your mission, that's your ‘why,’ it's why you exist in the world, why you get up in the morning, why people are doing what they're doing. Then there's the strategy. That's the ‘what.’ What are you focused on? What is expected of people to get the outcomes and the results that we want? And then the culture is the ‘how.’ How are we doing this? How are we working together?” explains Melissa Daimler, Chief Learning Officer at Udemy.

In the latest episode of LEARN, Melissa joins Ted, WorkRamp’s CEO & Co-Founder, to discuss the value of developing culture as a part of your business strategies for growth. During the conversation, they also talk about the important distinction between skills and behavior, and why you should be considering how they affect your company from a systems perspective.

Key takeaways:

- Culture isn’t about ping-pong tables or happy hours; it’s about how you work.

- The link between behaviors and skills is something organizations aren’t fully taking advantage of.

- Being clear about the behaviors and skills you want your employees to develop is crucial for continuity and growth.
