There is a need for a new model of governance, a new culture needs to be born on the foundation of intimacy, openness and trust.
Today, talent wars are no longer won by doling out packages; candidates long for workplaces where their beliefs intertwine with those of the company and exist in harmony while working together with a common vision and purpose.
Recent research findings such as the LinkedIn survey reveals remarkable findings that every growing organization must mind. The findings are stark and clear- a significant majority (two-thirds) of professionals are willing to be paid less to get a better work culture.
People want to work at a place where they can be themselves, and are creating a difference within a company as well as in the society.
The Great Disconnect
90% of CFOs see the link between better culture and business performance; bad culture leads to unethical practices, they believe; according to The National Bureau of Economic Research Working Paper (No. 23255)- Corporate Culture: Evidence from the Field.
Studies show that while the leadership believes they are making efforts to improve the culture, employees (nearly half) do not feel the same. This conflict can cause serious business repercussions like attrition, that can cost up to two times an employee’s annual compensation. The question then is how to resolve this issue?
