581 Rebecca Friese: Company Culture
How to Attract and Retain Top Talent by Operationalizing a Great Culture
Why do some companies attract and retain top talent, while others struggle to retain people? There’s a lot of lip service about the need to create a great company culture – and it’s more than installing Ping-Pong tables or kombucha on tap.
We all know what happens when work sucks for people—chances are you’ve worked in a toxic atmosphere, or simply one where it is all to easy to become dejected or disengaged.
A bad culture is what ultimately makes top team members flee a company, and executives and managers are often left scratching their heads at why this happens more often they expected. What matters to employees may be very different than what managers think, and getting it wrong comes at a big cost to the company bottom line.
Rebecca Friese has made it her mission to transform businesses and organizations by identifying and innovating outdated people practices. In her book The Good Culture: The Leader’s Guide to Creating a Workplace That Doesn’t Suck, Rebecca provides a step-by-step approach to operationalize a great people strategy that will boost success of your company.
By identifying outdated practices from the ground floor to the boardroom, Rebecca helps everyone, from Fortune 500 behemoths to hopeful start-ups, build the capacity to implement market-leading cultural changes. Having taken on every role from employee to a consultant to Vice President of People, she shares what it takes to chart a new course for talent management.
