Should you invest in that off-site or training program that promises to strengthen your culture??
I admit that I am a bit biased because I’m a believer. I support my clients in these ways, and I even have a trademarked program called Building an Inspiring Culture? .?
To give you a concise report, I asked my chatbot to outline the business case for Building an Inspiring Culture?.
Taken together, these studies suggest that investing in your culture can have a huge payoff, provided you invest in quality.?
The Wall Street Journal reports that culture drives employee retention , more so than pay and benefits. In a 2024 study, over seventy-five percent of job stayers reported satisfaction with their company’s culture, while less than twenty-two percent of leavers reported the same.?
Can’t afford to invest in your culture? These data points suggest that you can’t afford not to.
Are you ready to invest in your culture??
Stay away from the goofy catch-me-while-I-fall-backwards gimmicks and one-off “morale-building” picnics.
Your best option is to invest in programs that provide you and your employees with simple processes that you can teach, evaluate, and improve.
Most leaders use unconscious processes that work to varying degrees. Because you cannot teach, evaluate, or improve an unconscious process, leaders get frustrated that employees are not picking up what’s intuitive to the leader. Employees get frustrated that the leader expects them to be mind readers and is not giving them the tools to be successful.?
What would be the impact if you had simple, practical tools to build your leaders and culture??
The best places to find them are in my trademarked programs Becoming a WHY Leader? and Building an Inspiring Culture? .?

5 个月"Culture eats strategy for breakfast." This is certainly true in my experience! I've been in organizations where the culture was phenomenal and we led in almost every metric. I've also been in organizations where the culture was not so great and retention suffered and we struggled to implement programs and initiatives because people were just going through the motions or jumping ship for greener pastures. Leaders must absolutely invest personal time and effort in creating a positive culture that allows people to grow, exercise initiative, and self-actualize. This leads to employee buy-in and creates better results for the organization and it's stakeholders.
