by digitalseriesHow digitalseries Initiated a Positive Work-Space Culture | digitalseries Agency
A few days ago, in one of the orientation sessions conducted at digitalseries, all our DS folks were snowed under with a question! A question very simple yet, contemplative enough to make people scratch heads…
“What do you love the most about digitalseries?”
The most common answer was – “It’s the VIBE!”
What’s a vibe though? In simple terms it’s the energy people feel. But to be more precise& especially when it comes to our workspace, the whole ‘Vibe’ people which hit people right in their hearts is our WORKSPACE CULTURE!
The Definition of Workplace Culture
Culture is the environment that we are constantly surrounded by. The common beliefs, belief systems, attitudes, and set of assumptions that employees in a company share are referred to as workplace culture.
Because every company is unique in its way, there is no one-size-fits-all culture template that meets the needs of all organizations. Culture is something that you define or create on your own. It can be those rules that do not feel like a rule or can also be no rules at all.
You define it, you create it.
Here’s what it took us to create a Workspace Culture that is so seamless, that it is felt by people here as a ‘Vibe!’
- Communication& Transparency
Good communication connects good relations and that is what digitalseries, digital marketing company believes in putting up the efforts of creating a better workspace environment. Every time you dig into a topic communication is the first and topmost discourse.
Employees themselves should also be encouraged to communicate with each other and be provided with the proper tools to do so. All company communication should stick to three principles: being Clear, Courteous, and Proactive.
- Growth Mindset
Companies with a positive work environment provide the team with clear expectations for advancement and the tools and training needed for success. This can be done by establishing on-the-job training programs and creating specific goals for the team to reach promotions and raises.
That is what digitalseries does when it comes to learning and new opportunities in the respective field or domain.
- Culture of Collaboration
Humans are social beings who thrive on working together as a team. Companies that encourage collaboration help to foster a camaraderie among people that boosts both performance and morale.
Creating a sense of unity makes a team feel like they are working for something bigger than themselves. It motivates them on different aspects when they collaborate and learn on different levels with different domains.
- Reward Systems
Recognizing good work is an important morale booster and helps encourage team engagement. Rewarding them for the fine and utmost hard work they serve to the company, they deserve to be rewarded which motivates not only the one who is being rewarded but everyone around.
Reward system should be a part of the workspace culture, it creates a different energy in everyone.
- Strong Core Values& Purpose
Creating a sense of strong purpose among employees is a key ingredient for any sustainable business. Building a purpose-driven culture starts first with a set of core values that are then reflected in the company’s long-term goals.
These values should be woven into every one of the company’s actions. Core values give employees a clear reason for their work and can also help uplift the company at large.
It tells employees, prospects, and customers who you are as a company and it gets in your identity of the brand which we call brand value.
Creating a culture that fits with everyone is quite a task, but when everyone initiates in building one, that gets easier and more empowering.
When digital marketing agency, digitalseries started its journey on this digital road, the founder’s idea was to give his employees what he did not get in his professional life.
That’s how it all started and took a shape of a Positive Workspace Culture.
