Building the Right Business Culture

Staff Meeting

Your business culture can speak for itself – make sure it’s saying what you want it to. Culture is not a one-size fits all solution, but it is essential, impacting everything from job satisfaction and work performance to employee loyalty and morale.

If you’re looking to build the right business culture for your company, follow these three tips to get started:

1. Define What you Want in Your Business Culture

Business culture can have many definitions depending on whom you ask. Before you think about building the right culture, you must define what that means to you and your company.

Understand your business’s mission, vision and values and make sure they’re available to your employees. Employees are more likely to work for and succeed at a company whose values align with theirs. Define – what is valuable to my employees and me in the workplace.

It may take some time to define your culture, but having a clear definition will help set expectations and create a strong foundation for your employees to build on.

2. Transparency is Key

Transparency builds trust. Be honest with what your business culture values. This will allow employees to know if your business is the right fit for them from the start. It’s better to take more time at the onset of an employee relationship to define your business’s values to ensure they are aligned. This will help push you to your ideal culture because the people in your business will be stewards of your business’s values.

If you’re working to build your ideal business culture, also be transparent with your current employees. Communicating expectations on how you expect your culture to run can significantly benefit the time and effort it takes to get it where you want it to be. If employees have questions or concerns about the company’s expectations, let them voice their opinions and consider if their problems may help push you to your ideal culture.

3. Ask for Feedback

Employees will inevitably have opinions on business culture. They’re working day to day in the culture you’re building. Ask them what may be a pain point and what they already value about your company.

Considering their opinions will also help build your confidence as a business owner and leader. With their confidence, you will build a team whose values align with your business.
