Culture is the backbone of any successful business. It consists of a company's attitudes, beliefs, mission and philosophy.

In this video, Entrepreneur Network partner Ivan Misner discusses the importance of fostering a strong organizational culture.

Culture permeates all levels of an organization, affecting the way people interact with one another and fueling a company's growth, Misner explains. With culture comes vision, beliefs, behaviors and traditions, all of which can be taught to new employees to create a cohesive work environment.

Core values tell the world who the organization is. A burning vision statement can give a business "laser focus." And engagement brings the organization together through collaboration and teamwork.
