Culture can't be duplicated.

• dragonwriter 12y ago
  Culture is precisely a set of transmitted patterns of behavior; how to engineer a duplication of culture may be a difficult challenge that needs to be solved on a case-by-case basis and which lacks a simple, general solution, but "culture can't be duplicated" is untrue.

  It can't no, but the things companies do to create culture can be duplicated to create a culture of their own. We borrowed a lot from the typical startup playbook at Perfect Audience and ended up with a place that was a pleasure to work at, but for its own idiosyncratic reasons unique to PA. The general methods, team dinners, relaxed environment, lack of meetings, hiring good friendly people, are the same, the culture that grows out of that is different everywhere.
