Don’t rush the process and be sure to give these members your full attention. The first email to a new member is a valuable opportunity to make a positive impression that only happens once.

That is all super important, but it’s not enough. If you want your culture to be truly amazing, then it can’t just be an idea or a set of concepts—it must be actively managed.
