It can be argued that some type of culture will form, regardless of the emphasis you put on it \u2013 that\u2019s just human nature. But, how can we check in to make sure that the business culture we\u2019re exuding is an effective one?<\/p>\n<p>A few months back, I was told about a simple way to test your business culture, in a method developed by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.franklincovey.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Franklin Covey<\/a>. In order to have a winning culture, a culture must have organizational focus and execution shining from great leaders and effective individuals.<\/p>\n<p>With this, there are four categories that contribute to a winning culture. These include: distinctive contribution, engaged team members, loyal customers, and sustained performance.<\/p>\n<p>You may be reading this and going, \u201cwell, no duh,\u201d but let\u2019s think about this for a second. Even if you can explain the factors that would make up a strong culture, does that mean that your company has them?<\/p>\n<p>In terms of distinctive contribution, it\u2019s important to look past what your company does on a day-to-day basis and see what you\u2019re doing to make a difference in the world. Does your company give back to the community? Does your team feel proud to work for a company that does good for others?<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of your team members, do they seem to be engaged? So many people go into work with a lackluster attitude and that has a poor effect on their output.<\/p>\n<p>Are you doing things within your culture to make your team feel engaged and productive? This can range from weekly meetings designed to brainstorm and hear everyone\u2019s opinion, to programs that award hard work with fun incentives.<\/p>\n<p>When you have team members that are engaged and hardworking, they will display this to the public and will likely help in attracting loyal customers. Customers can tell when a company and its team are being genuine, and that carries so much weight in terms of retention.<\/p>\n<p>This leads to the final aspect of sustained performance. You must be present and consistent with your customers in order to give them repeated satisfactory performance time and time again.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s likely that our business cultures can all enhance in one or more of these categories.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(EDITORIAL) Achieve a winning business culture by checking in on four important categories that are time-tested and proven to improve your company.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":337355,"featured_media":12358,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"wds_primary_category":0,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[254],"tags":[1765,140,1234],"class_list":["post-12902","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-editorials","tag-culture","tag-professionalism-2","tag-real-estate-news"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/09\/work-productivity.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12902","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/337355"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12902"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12902\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18696,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12902\/revisions\/18696"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12358"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12902"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12902"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12902"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
