Imagining the Work Culture You Want, Then Taking Intentional Steps to Get There with Jeff Conroy
January 10, 2024
Imagine the perfect workplace. Some folks may say that "perfect" and "work" are oxymorons. Truth be told, we humans gain a lot of non-monetary benefits from doing good work. In short, it makes us feel good. If we're going to be working, why not make it as close to perfect as possible?
Back to the story - imagine your perfect workplace. What is the service or industry? How big is the market? Most importantly, how do people treat one another? If you can imagine a great workplace with a superb culture, you can create it, or at least start the process.
There is no reason we should expect anything less than improvement when talking about work culture. But changing it can be difficult so people tend to stay put in discomfort they know rather than get uncomfortable with aspirational goals. Regret lives in the chances you don't take.
Now in these very short paragraphs, you've decided to make some change, here are a few considerations:
- Clear Communication: Setting clear and specific goals is crucial. Building a shared understanding of what the organization aims to achieve is essential.
- Consistent Accountability: Holding team members accountable for their actions and behaviors, along with addressing any misalignments with the team's goals promptly, is vital for maintaining focus and progress.
- Team Trust and Cohesion: Building a culture based on trust, mutual respect, and collaboration is key. Fostering open communication and creating an environment for feedback are foundational for sustained positive change.
The No More Leadership BS team brings you 10 considerations for you as you think about improving your work culture. Even if you're not the CEO, you can still affect positive change. The only way to guarantee no change is to add no effort. You can make improvements for the satisfaction of yourself and your team. All you have to do, is start with intentionality.
