In many corporations that Technalink has worked with, the initial motivation for considering a cultural change ultimately came from organizational goals. Although the eventual outcome is an increase in productivity, it is also important to recognize how tactics align with employee goals in order to have this beneficial result.
Bigger Than The Bottom Line
Many business owners do become overly obsessed with the bottom line as a measure of their professional and even personal success. However, it should be noted that this is a very narrow view of the company’s potential. It also measures a corporation quantitatively, without looking at the qualitative aspect of workplace context.
When owners decide to look at internal resources such as people, their beingness, and their ideas, then owners also gain a larger perspective of the organization and just how far it can grow. This tactic can also lead to personal realizations that owners have regarding the structure and reputation of the company.
Multiple Dimensions
There are many ways that shifting perspective can give a better glimpse of the larger picture. Within the corporation, owners become mindful to potential that is untapped within employees. While empowering staff members alone can lead to stronger productivity, this empowerment also lets bigger ideas and problem solving skills come to light. As a result, owners can find greater productivity just through giving employees the freedom to excel.
As these events unfold, we have also found that many owners will begin to take the time to be introspective about their own goals and potential. The result may be a recognition that changing corporate culture to one that is more spiritual is also aligned with the principles and ethics of the company. In having this illumination, owners also see that a positive environment for workers equals a positive output for the company.
The larger picture is truly an understanding of how all the energies that inhabit a workplace are interconnected. When they align with one another, greater productivity becomes a result, but in order to gain this alignment, owners also have to engage with all the facets that contribute to internal and external corporate growth.
