The Interesting Health & Safety Podcast

Do You Have A "We" Or A "They" Business?


Listen Later

What kind of pronoun does your business have? Do we have a business that feels inclusive and more team-oriented, or is it a business that's more segregated?

In this episode, Colin talks about the value in finding out what type of business you have.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Simply listening to the ways in which people talk about your business will give you a far better idea about how it is perceived.
  • If your people are describing your business as a "they" business, then something is missing in the culture of the company, and it's up to you to figure out where that is.

BEST MOMENTS

'Do they say "we" are going to be doing this? Or is it a business that uses "they" a lot?'

'If you've got a "they" business, then you've got things to do!'
