WHY YOU SHOULD THINK OF YOUR EMPLOYEES LIKE ATHLETES ON A TEAM

You don’t need to work at Google or Apple to experience a company culture. In fact, small brands are dominating their niche, through investing in their company culture. 

So, what is culture, in a corporate setting and why is it important? 

It’s more than team-building or having a ping-pong table. In short, company culture is how people act and interact within an organisation. Just like how we experience it socially, company culture is a collective set of beliefs, values, attitudes and behaviours… your company’s ‘worldview.’ It’s less what we do and more how we do it. 

Every company, and team, has one… whether you realise it or not. 

The best example of a strong culture is when leaders and employers understand (and promote) the company’s values, because they’re reinforced within daily operations… through training, decision-making, and attracting talent. It’s a sense of ownership. Think of Richard Branson in the travel space or Steve Jobs, with Apple. These companies attract different personality types, than others. 

Employees become advocates for the company’s culture, in client meetings and public settings. Successful cultures transcend into the marketplace.

Company cultures are built from the inside, out. 

If it begins behind closed doors, owners and managers must consciously create a culture… before dynamics form and teams learn their own ‘language.’ 

 

This brings us to the most important point of this article…
