Positive Culture
We spend around a third of our lives at work, so it's important to cultivate a positive culture in the workplace to ensure that employees remain healthy, happy and high achieving. Creating an environment where your team can thrive will give your business the best chance at success and longevity with a workforce who really care about driving results.
What is a Positive Culture?
Workplace culture is based on the ethos shared by those who make up the workforce. The combined values, beliefs and attitudes of the team help to guide the organisation and evolve it. Most importantly, you can see a clear reflection of this culture mirrored in your company's treatment of customers and employees. Creating a positive culture in the workplace is vital to boosting employee engagement and ensuring your business achieves great success.
Why is a Positive Culture important?
Who wants to spend eight hours a day in a negative environment where they don't feel supported? No-one. To achieve great success as a company, you need to attract the right people and retain them. You need your staff to be engaged, motivated and passionate about what they do. To inspire your team, you need to ensure they feel supported and that morale remains high. Toxic work dynamics can become damaging to individuals and can increase stress and stress-related illness. You can avoid issues like this by providing opportunities for job satisfaction and growth.
Using transformational speech in the workplace
Language holds incredible power to shape the way we experience the world around us. We can instantly change our emotional experience simply by choosing new words to describe to ourselves what we’re feeling. Imagine if we took this power into the workplace and used it to reframe stressful situations and everyday communications. If we just use our habitual unconscious vocabulary, we could be limiting our potential for personal achievement and working success.
Benefits of creating a Positive Culture in the Workplace
The impact of culture on hiring
Most people say they know within a month of joining a new company whether the culture will be a good fit for them or not. Some claim to know within a week of joining. Workplace culture is hugely important for attracting the right staff, but also retaining them. Avoiding high staff turnover is key for creating a place where people actively seek to work and stay long-term.​
