EVERYONE cares about it!

Better Up explains Company Culture this way-

Company culture is the shared values, attitudes, behaviors, and standards that make up a work environment. It is about the experience people have at work and how that experience aligns with the external brand and messaging of the company. Culture is what creates the day-to-day experience at a company.It is the base that we build on to have a team that carries out the mission of the company. It is imperative that we as leaders understand and embody that culture, so our employees will do the same.

I included the Gen Z conversation here, because they are the current and upcoming generation of workers and it is so important that we understand their mindset. We need to see their point of view so we can make our company values relatable.

Thatโ€™s what Matt Wilson and his wife did. They were tired ofthe commute and all that goes along with living in a congested area. So they openeda restaurant in a beautiful beach area of Costa Rica.

They were experienced business people and serious marketersso they went in armed with that. And Mattโ€™s recipes. The restaurant was a big hit. Then along came the pandemic.

During the pandemic, Matt began sharing his marketingknowledge. That got him fired up enough to share with more and more folks, until he decided, coaching and consulting would be his new gig.

So, my podcast interview with Ricardo the Cheesemaker didn't record properly, so I had to pivot. What a great subject!

There is no such thing as perfection. Everyone makes mistakes in this world. So, we need to have the right MINDSET to learn from mistakes - ours and others' mistakes. We need to be able to Duck and Weave when necessary.

How do we get good at pivoting?

Stay Educated

Believe in Yourself

Be open to learning and opportunities

Make the most of this life and all the FANTASTIC opportunities we get to do it wrong! If we learn from every mistake - we can only get better and better!

I know you have it in you to succeed - You Can Do It TOO!
