The “Rules” of Roundpeg
Every organization: club, gang, tribe or company has rules. These rules, official and unofficial often rise from shared values and create the “culture” . As new members join the organization, the rules are passed on; formally through policies, manuals and orientation sessions or informally. At Roundpeg, our culture is hardworking, but lighthearted, warm, friendly and fun. As we consider expansion, there is always the concern that we will lose part of our culture.
