Recharge your corporate culture for long-term success!

We persevere and hold on. Our endurance is tested. But soon the vaccine will be ours. Albert Einstein said that out of every crisis comes great opportunity. And while we will not go back to the way things were, the road to, and the establishment of, the "new normal" will present many opportunities for positive change for businesses and organisations, not least in the way we work.

Our path to the 'new' carries new forms of uncertainty, of course, but the opportunities to take away lessons from how we worked during the pandemic - in terms of how we work, how we can use new technology and implement it more quickly, how we can create successful teams, remove unnecessary administration and make decisions more efficiently - are many.

One of the key insights is a greater understanding of how empathy and compassion can create a workplace that can unleash power. The trend was already evident before the pandemic, where employee focus is increasingly linked to results. Experiences of working during the pandemic are accelerating this trend.

Recently McKinsey held a live event on this, and published a longer article "Overcoming pandemic fatigue: How to reenergize organizations for the long run"

"Leaders must actively manage the energy of their workforces, cultivate the quality of employee relationships, and demonstrate a capacity for resilience to recharge their organizations during crises".

(Authors: Aaron De Smet, Laura Tegelberg, Rob Theunissen, and Tiffany Vogel).

Five recommendations (methods) are outlined and the conclusion describes:

"Leaders can help individuals view work as a place where they can grow personally, nurture their talent, and live their purpose. Organizations themselves wouldn't simply survive, but could "win in the turn" and emerge more human centered, innovative, and better positioned to adapt to the challenges ahead".

Since its inception over 20 years ago, Involve's motto has been "Transform Business by involving all the people". We have methods and tools that help our clients concretise and visualise the complex and ensure that every manager and employee is given the context and conditions to understand and implement strategies in their daily work. When the goals and the path to them become clear to everyone, and strong forces are thus directed in the same direction, commitment, will and pride are recharged in a corporate culture that is sustainable, strong and drives success.
