Create a Positive and Inclusive Work Culture

CHAPTER 9

Create a Positive and Inclusive Work Culture

Apart from creating a transparent work culture that deepens trust, you must also focus on developing an inclusive workforce. An inclusive culture is:

8x more likely to achieve positive business results 6x more likely to be innovative 3x more likely to be productive 2x more likely to exceed financial expectations

So, create a workplace culture that builds a sense of community and cohesiveness among all. Invest in a culture that supports employees from diverse backgrounds, genders, ethnicity, sexuality, and geographic locations. Be flexible, give back, communicate more, and empathize so that teams feel motivated to contribute to larger business goals.

Remember, transitioning to a remote workforce isn’t merely a temporary fix. It is much more than only allowing employees to work from home. It’s a lot more than just a COVID-19 trend. It’s a significant cultural shift. So, develop a positive work culture with a balanced mix of talents, skills, ideas, and personalities, which is instrumental in bringing success to a company.
