When Should You Start Paying Attention to Culture?

When should you work on your company culture?

When you start to notice an increase in turnover?
When business just doesn’t seem enjoyable anymore and it feels stagnant?
When some drama hits and it impacts your yearly goals?
When you reach a certain milestone such as employee count or a certain revenue?

I’ve been hired to work with companies in each of these situations. And the truth for each situation is that they’ve already missed the signs...

Don’t miss this:  Culture exists whether you’re paying attention to it or not. 

Accidental values emerge... behaviors that you aren’t noticing such as gossip, poor communication between departments, employees that are stressed, customers service that lacks... real service.

The answer to “when” is NOW...

When you’re doing great!
When you’re building your business!
When you’re hiring rapidly!
When you’re considering cutbacks and layoffs!

Start now because it’s only going to get harder when there’s more customers, more employees, more locations;

More drama 
More busyness
More mistakes

Make culture a priority just as you make sales, marketing and product development a priority. 

Shifting culture takes work. It takes strategy and it takes a commitment. 

And making it a priority will be the greatest decision you’ll make for the future of your business.
