keeper of the culture

As a leader of something, I am the Keeper of that Culture. I can blame others or situations and circumstances, but ultimately it is my responsibility. Today in our staff meeting, I will be asking what kind of culture have we created in our different areas? Is it one where leaders have opportunity to rise to the top and lead? Is it one where people are stifled? Does our culture free people to dream and use their giftings for God, or push them into a box? Whatever the reality is....I am responsible for it.
