Workweek

With only 49% of employees in the US feeling consistently appreciated at work, there is definitely room to improve a sense of gratitude in the work environment. If you missed last week's inspiring webinar with Hebba Youssef of Workweek and the I Hate It Here podcast + newsletter, this overview (with link to the webinar recording) will get you caught up! In this quick blog, Michael Muldoon covers: ?? The difference between recognition & appreciation - they're not the same! ?? Gratitude as a strategy - impact on productivity and engagement ?? Positivity in feedback - building trust in coaching It's always a great time to be mindful of gratitude but this time of year and heading into a new year is a great reminder to try these new strategies to have a huge impact on the employee experience and culture. #employeeappreciation #cultureofgratitude #employeerecognition #employeeexperience #hrevents

In this episode of Funds and Founders we sit down with Becca Sherman, co-founder and COO of Workweek, a rapidly growing B2B media company. Becca shares her journey from customer success roles to building a multi-million dollar media business. From Employee to Entrepreneur: The Hidden Nuances of Building a Company The transition from leading within an organization to founding your own venture isn't just about changing titles – it's about embracing a completely different mindset. Key insights from the episode: 1?? Starting with values BEFORE strategy: Before naming our company or defining our business model, we established our core values and operating principles 2?? The bootstrap mindset: Learning to build with limited resources teaches invaluable lessons in business efficiency and innovation 3?? Cultural architecture: As a founder, you have the unique opportunity to intentionally shape company culture from day one 4?? Owner's mindset: While you can bring an ownership mentality to any role, founding a company demands a deeper level of commitment and passion The document we created outlining our values still guides every hiring decision we make today. It's not just about building a business – it's about building a legacy. #Entrepreneurship #Leadership #StartupLife #BusinessGrowth #CompanyCulture
