And you can too…… in 10 easy steps
Twenty years ago, we at The Motley Fool set out to create the most disruptive financial organization in the history of the world. Along the way, we discovered a second opportunity - to change the way the world works. Every month, we openly invite people from all organizations to come learn about our workplace culture. We leave them with 10 changes they can make to start improving their organizational cultures. Here they are.
No.1 Create a Culture of Trust
Companies should trust that the people they hire are smart, motivated, and eager to drive value. Hire trustworthy people and treat them as such.
No.2 Live core values
Core values are only powerful if they reflect the company you're actually building. Measure your next new idea against your core values and make sure it meets the standard for each one.
No.3 Be Intentional
Align your employees around the changes you want to make and allow them to hold you accountable.
No.4 Enhance Hiring Practices
Great people love to work with other great people. Identify the superstar performers at your company and include at least one of them in every interview process.
No.5 Focus on High Performers
Take the next week and only spend time on your highest performers. That will add value faster than hand-holding your low performers.
No.6 Foster a Culture of Learning
Intellectual curiosity doesn't cost a thing - expect it of everyone. Ask an in-house expert to teach a class for the rest of the organization.
No.7 Give Frequent Feedback
Make it frequent and mix it up. Do your annual reviews work? If not, then get rid of them and try something else.
No.8 Modle from the top
Your culture will largely reflect the values that your senior leaders display. Take something you wish happened more and model it for your employees.
No.9 Make it Transparent
Don't underestimate how much your employees want to know about your business and the value they can add if they see the whole picture, Talk about some numbers in your next meeting that aren't usually discussed.
No.10 Have Fun
Order one of these.
