Sustainable workplaces have a lot to do with a healthy company culture and embracing the right values goes hand in hand with longevity and so sustainability. One of the most important aspects of a healthy company culture - in my view -  is peer to peer appreciation. It is not easy to nurture, as sometimes we can be competitive beings but if companies get it right, a real inclusive and team work environment can flourish.

The current context is clear, we know it is almost impossible to get new talent. On one hand, we are in a candidate centric market. The candidates are empowered to move around, change jobs, get a pay rise and seek their purpose. On the other hand, there is a massive shortage in skills. Technology is speeding the way the world is moving constantly and so the skills needed change rapidly too. Company culture is important, more important than ever, and most organisations know it - but do we get the employee appreciation strategy right though? Those organisations that are on the exciting journey of designing their company culture understand the power of a robust and well thought people strategy. 

Employee Appreciation is a fundamental part of who we are, we need to ask ourselves: how do we start celebrating our employees?

With further lockdown restrictions being imposed across the UK, businesses are once again having to set up operations for home working and to manage a remote workforce. Unlike last year, when the coronavirus first took its toll and remote working came about quite suddenly, organisations should now be more or less armed with the tools for a remote office. But when it comes to managing employees remotely, there is evidence of organisations taking it a step further.  Read my full article here: https://resources.cornerstoneondemand...   For more tips on how to navigate the new normal, hear from our Chief Talent Officer, Kimberly Cassady and our Chief Learning Officer, Jeff Miller, as they discuss what leaders need to know in the new normal, in this video here.   https://resources.cornerstoneondemand...

So much content is out there about getting your workplace to invest in learning, but quite often, it’s not that your employees don’t want to learn and more so that you are struggling to convince your top level management that training initiatives are worth the investment. Training can be an expensive investment, convincing them to sign off the budget could be the biggest obstacle to creating a continuous learning culture, but here are some points that might just change their minds.  

1. Learning creates a more engaged workforce 

2. Learning equals productivity increase 

3. Learning reduces stress 

4. Learning means you stay relevant

Remember Leonardo… vegan Di Caprio? Now we are talking stock, Queens. Wallstreet Wolfs, does this ring a bell? We will be good ladies and invest in sustainable companies when possible, but we are pulling up our sleeves and making this our reality.  You have investigated your last 12 months statements and found a potential number to save (tick). Monetised your hobbies (tick). Now, months later you need to play the game. Take money out of your account, the more the better but keep this in mind, if you think you will need the money in the next 12 months leave it in your bank. Listen to this. If you need the money then it is not stockable money because trading is like gambling, you need to be ready to lose it all.
