Change a Toxic Culture

The Chief of Staff can be a super shock to the system. But sometimes, that’s exactly what you need in order to change a toxic leadership culture.

Utilize your Chief of Staff as a role model for good leadership behavior. Especially if they are new to their company, they can be a steward for ethics and a champion for positivity.

They can use logic and reason as a means to justify business decisions and combat politics. They can create career pathways for junior folks who are desperately seeking good mentors. And they can drive important cross-functional culture initiatives to improve employee engagement.

It’s a lot to put on the shoulders of one person, but with the right sponsorship from the CEO and the board, the Chief of Staff can change leaders for good.

The Chief of Staff can act as the trojan horse to combat the epidemic of bad executive behavior.

We believe that we've only scratched the surface of what the Chief of Staff can do to positively impact leadership, and by extension the world. We’re excited for what’s next.
