Culture

77% of people say culture affects job performance.
The other 23% don’t know it does. Here’s why:

Imagine spending your day in a place where you feel:

• Isolated
• Invisible
• Unheard
• Stressed
• Powerless
• Controlled
• Intimidated
• Overworked
• Out of place
• Disrespected
• Unappreciated
• Micromanaged

Not fun, right?

Now imagine a workplace where you feel:

• Appreciated
• Empowered
• Connected
• Respected
• Supported
• Motivated
• Confident
• Inspired
• Trusted
• Valued
• Heard
• Safe

That’s the power of culture.

Culture is more than just values or rules.

➟ It’s how people treat one another.
➟ It’s the feeling you get at work every day.
➟ It’s what makes you want to go to work (or not).

But why does it matter so much?

Because a great culture leads to happier employees.
And happy employees are more motivated.

✅ They care more about the work they do.
✅ They’re more creative and innovative.
✅ They take better care of customers.
✅ They stay with the company longer.

Leaders, listen up!
You are the cultivators of culture.

You set the tone with your:

➡️ Words
➡️ Actions
➡️ Example

And, with what you tolerate 👀.

Want to boost performance?
Have happier, more motivated employees?

Start by nurturing a culture where everyone can feel:

• Supported
• Included
• Trusted
• Valued

Here’s how:

1. Listen More
Ask for feedback and act on it.

2. Build Trust
Be transparent. Keep promises. Trust your team.

3. Recognize Efforts
Say “thank you.” Celebrate wins, big and small.

4. Support Growth
Offer training. Help with career paths. Let people grow.

5. Prioritize Well-Being
Offer flexible hours. Make sure they don’t burn out.

6. Encourage Collaboration
Create a sense of community where everyone belongs.

7. Lead by Example
Be kind. Be fair. Be honest.

With these steps, you can transform your workplace.
Or protect the great culture you already have.

It’s not just good for your people.
It’s good for your business, too.

Culture matters. Make yours count.
