Whether your business has 2 employees or 200, the work environment describes your corporate culture. A positive culture motivates people to make them show up and be productive. A bad corporate culture decreases morale and increases job turnover, costing your business money. Creating a positive corporate culture can help your business be more successful because your team is engaged with their work. Here are four things you can do to have a great corporate culture.  

Make the Office Comfortable

No, you don’t need to install a basketball court or pool table, but you do need to make work hours comfortable. Think about ergonomics when supplying office equipment. Provide storage to keep the office neat and tidy. Ensure working conditions are right for your team. Open spaces might work well in some places, but if your team spends a lot of time on the phone, it might not be as appropriate.

Install Effective Lighting

Natural light can improve productivity and attitude, but many offices don’t have the option to have walls removed. Incorporate the right lighting through your office using blue-enriched light bulbs that reduce fatigue in your workspaces. Meeting rooms and breakrooms need warmer tones that promote calmness. The right lighting encourages a good attitude and improves performance.

Hire the Right People

Your corporate culture starts with a great team of people. Hire professionals who work hard. Don’t be afraid to get rid of the bad apples that bring the office down.

Work on Communication

Communication isn’t just talking, it’s also listening. Give your team the ability to talk to you about problems and situations. Tighten up your listening skills to make sure you hear the message. Let your team know that their opinion is important.
