Building a Strong Team Culture

Building a Strong Team Culture: 10 Essential Management Tips by Liora Quade is a timely and powerful guide for any leader who understands that the foundation of lasting success is not just strategy or productivity—it’s culture.

In today's competitive workplace, perks and benefits can no longer compensate for a lack of connection, trust, or psychological safety. Culture is the unseen force that shapes how teams collaborate, innovate, and thrive—or how they fall apart. Liora Quade delivers a practical, no-nonsense framework for cultivating a workplace culture where people feel valued, empowered, and driven by shared purpose.

Drawing on organisational psychology, leadership science, and years of hands-on management experience, this book unpacks what truly makes a team culture succeed. These ten essential principles are not fluffy ideals. They are clear, actionable habits and mindsets that help managers move from transactional oversight to transformational leadership.

The journey begins with leading by example—because culture always starts at the top. If you want honesty, you must model it. If you expect collaboration, you must foster it. From there, the book dives deep into the human side of leadership: how to create psychological safety, communicate with transparency, and foster a true sense of belonging. You’ll learn how to hire not just for skills but for values. How to turn feedback into a tool for growth. How to confront toxicity before it festers. And how to build team rituals that reinforce identity, pride, and purpose.
