By Sarah Harris

Grow a workplace culture where people thrive.

In The Culture Garden, mental health expert and leadership coach Sarah Harris, LCSW, offers a clear and compassionate guide for leaders who want to create work environments where people feel seen, supported, and successful.

Drawing on over two decades of experience as a therapist and consultant, Harris understands the deep impact workplace culture has on people's emotional health and performance.

Navigate the unique challenges of hybrid and remote teams with clarity and care

Lead with empathy, transparency, and integrity-especially during difficult conversations

The Culture Garden is organized into three essential sections-communication, physical space, and policies-each with actionable tools and reflective prompts. Whether you're a CEO, HR professional, team leader, or entrepreneur, this book will help you plant the seeds of a healthy workplace culture and tend to its growth, day by day.

If you want a workplace where people flourish-not just function-this is your field guide.
