Here is the secret to a successful business

News

Corporate culture, is the values mindset and behavior that constitute the environment of an organization, a very important element to any firm that wishes to make great  milestone in its objectives. Corporate culture incorporates the interest of the organization to that of the employees, making it a single unified target of the day. An organization that envision growth and stability in this wavering economy of the 21st  century, must design and embrace a corporate culture that is dynamic and a dual system of growth, the insinuation here actually is, as the firm grows, the impact should be transferred all down to the employees.

 A good  corporate culture is  one that allows for,  professionalism and flexibility in the company, especially now that we are leaving in an era where by technology as mushroomed in all sectors of production, by providing flexibility, this should mean that an employee is still in a position to conduct his mandates from wherever location he or she may be and still keep the production of the firm at its pick.

 This is achievable if only the values of the company, the mindset of the employees are in agreement and that technology is a one thing never to ignore. Despite the availability of huge chunks of information on this, almost 60% of the top managers still make this one big mistake, playing the tag game with the employees, so it’s  us versus  them, one thing we shouldn’t  forget is that the behavior, mindset of the top managers will determine  how the common employees will reciprocate back, and hence this goes along the chain of production which would either positively or negatively affect the  general output the of  firm.

It should be noted that, production is an ascending process, which basically means its starts deep down from the common employee, lower, middle and the top level of management. If any of this stages is naturally ignored as a result of a poor corporate culture, the outcomes could be quite regrettable to any organization.

In this competitive world of business, corporate culture is not an option but a must have thing, not just a nice thing but a good thing to have if the company wishes to be at par with the rest well performing businesses. Unlike in the olden days where by the corporate culture was organization centered, today’s  business is customer oriented, growth maximization rather than profit maximization, employees to  top management assimilation, this are some of the fundamental aspect of a good corporate culture in a 21st  century business world.

 Our behavior as an organization should depict our true values in both internal and external environment of the firm, because at the end of the day they determine the feedback that an organization gets from its customers, hence the likely of it growing or crashing into ashes.

Both long-term and short -term goals should be strategically planned and communicated to the employees  logically for them to be achievable, employees  satisfaction should be meet, to help transform their mindset to a more productive one, rather than a stressed out  that is quite underperforming.

Every organization is in business for this sole purpose, to grow and acquire that one extra market share, to survive, and to provide satisfaction to its potential customers, this is quite attainable with a rational corporate culture that values its internal and external environment, because at the end of the day what we accomplish counts.
