Do you think “company culture” is genuinely important, or is it often just used as a buzzword to mask deeper workplace issues? I’d be interested to hear how HR professionals define culture in a meaningful way and what actually makes a positive, healthy work environment.

I don't have a meaningful definition for it, it really is just the general vibe of the place. If people are generally happy and upbeat, they're more productive. I don't place much stock in the whole idea that each organization needs to have some overarching ethos guiding its every move. All you need is reasonable expectations and human decency.

Yes that’s very true, happy workplace, happy workers!

Culture is a combination of the values and behaviors supported consistently throughout the organization. It is important to the extent it adds value to organizational performance.

Yes that’s very true!

I think culture is real, but often poorly defined. For me, it shows up in how people are treated day to day, not what is written.

Yes exactly and the atmosphere in the room!

Culture is a buzzword people like to throw around to make it seem like they care about the well being of their employees. That is rarely true in my experience.
