Achieve Tay Swift Status with Cultural Capital
Looking for that special something to propel your business growth? It's closer than you think—right in the heart of your organization: your people.
Understanding the Value of Cultural Capital
Some organizations just seem to have that special something. It's as if they're perpetually having a Taylor Swift moment, basking in the glow of rave reviews, outstanding press coverage, and hordes of devoted fans. Now that's the pinnacle of success.
When an aging service organization stands out from the crowd in this manner, it's not luck or random chance. It's a deliberate focus on cultural capital. Picture this as the heartbeat of your organization—defined by shared values, beliefs, and the moments that occur between team members daily. This unique essence sets your team and the entire organization apart. And just like any valuable asset, when harnessed correctly, cultural capital can drive unmatched business growth.
While it might seem tricky to pin down in numbers, the results speak for themselves. Organizations that prioritize cultural alignment, which involves aligning the organization's culture, values, and goals with its people, experience significant improvements in revenue and employee engagement.
Employee Experience: The Foundation of Cultural Capital
Surprisingly, one of the key contributors to cultural capital often gets overlooked: the employee experience. Companies recognized as top employers consistently outperform their peers. These champions record lower employee turnover, quicker revenue growth, and higher productivity. Plus, they're magnets for talent, drawing twice as many applicants for every job posting.
Our very own research with Drive's World’s Best Culture awardees echoes these findings. These elite organizations have an average culture score of 78, significantly higher than the broader healthcare sector's average of 50 or Drive’s aging service client average of 58. Notably, these top performers share common values—with teamwork at the forefront. Moreover, they avoid limiting values such as blame or bullying, which can stunt engagement, productivity, and growth.
