questions to understand culture


Culture is felt through the behaviors that are reinforced or discouraged on a day-to-day basis on teams. If you want to get a sense of the story of the leader and team’s culture, use detailed questions. You will get a much better sense based on the responses, especially if the leader struggles to think of what to say. If you are a manager, prepare to answer detailed questions that illustrate your team’s culture...

Examples:

  • Tell me about a time a team member changed your mind?
  • Tell me about someone you are proud of.
  • Do you fully disconnect during holidays and vacations?
  • Describe a recent success or win. 
  • Tell me about a disagreement or conflict on the team. 
  • How did you start your last team meeting? 
  • What is your ideal person for this role?
  • Who have you promoted and why?
  • Tell me about the last person you recognized.
  • How do you focus on your own growth and development?
