The term "company culture" refers to how people within a company interact with one another, the relationship between employer and employee, and the priorities of the given company. A healthy company culture creates a healthy, safe and motivational working environment, within which employees communicate effectively and pull together. Managers play a key role in the implementation of a healthy and positive company culture: they should try to support the key principles of the culture in their teams so it does not remain mere theory. Here are some things you can do on a daily basis to support a positive company culture in your team and thus create a pleasant working environment.
Gallup Management Journal states that mutual respect among employees is the key to a positive company culture. Show respect to your employees every day, and treat them in a way that does not make them feel like you are authoritarian or condescending.
Communication is vital to productivity of both the team and the whole company. A positive company culture should in any case support transparent and effective communication between all sections of the company and all employees. Be honest with subordinates, if possible do not hide anything from them, and communicate with them openly.
If the manager is always negative and has a breakdown whenever there is a problem, it does not add to a good atmosphere at the workplace. Keep a positive mindset in everything you do, and always spread positive vibes in your team, especially during difficult times.
There is nothing that damages the atmosphere at the workplace like favouritism and lack of fairness on the part of the manager. Always be just and always treat everybody with the same respect.
Sometimes it is necessary not to be completely professional and formal. Occasionally you should have an informal chat with subordinates and for a while talk about something that is not work-related.
