Culture matters. In fact, without a sustainable culture, your work is simply not going to be efficient, nor will it last.
 
Culture is values expressed in behaviour -- the engine that sustains us.
 
The Sustainable Culture Mug* celebrates notable civic values, virtues and principles of working and "living well together" down through the ages - from the Ancient Greeks to today.  If followed, it fosters a culture of collaboration, innovation and effectiveness that supports the well-being of all.
 
This kit includes the Toxic Culture Mug. Drinking from this mug has negative side effects including strife, animosity, sickness and reduced functioning in all areas of life and work.
 
The kit calls on you, your employees, coworkers, friends or community partners to "CHOOSE WISELY". Every day. Your culture depends on it.
 
These mugs are a jovial, visual and impactful way to express how important respectful conduct is between people.
 
It is also a Tool for Community Builders to foster good governance - the key to any sustainable community building and organizational development. Toxic behaviour is the greatest obstacle to good governance today. Do your part to support sustainable culture.
