Who contributes most to the culture of a company: the executives or the employees? It always tends to seem more like a spiel from upper management than an actual existing, actionable way of operating.

That’s a tough one. I’d say the executives have the power to make positive culture, but often don’t. Usually comes down to the employees having to and that’s hard to do if leadership isn’t supportive.

Saying it is the easy part, stands to reason that it’s offloaded onto others to actually uphold. I can understand executives are often outside the day-to-day, but management isn’t, and it’s a constant effort to keep the culture decent.

It's a mix I wouldn't go as far as executives but higher management and their attitude affect middle management which affects employees.

Indeed, it’s a domino effect

In my experience, it is usually the employees that contribute the most to the culture. Of course upper management does make an impact. But overall, the employees are the ones who contribute the most to the culture.

Makes sense, since employees are literally who make up of the company and create the environment (along with management, who sets and implements the standard)

Executives push down what they want. The end unit level dictates how it will be.
