A Healthy Workplace Culture Starts With Leadership. - Marcel Schwantes, Love In Action
He’s also the host of the wildly-popular podcast Love In Action, born out of Marcel’s belief that strong leadership and company culture start with human empowerment. The truth is, “employee engagement” is a really cold way of saying that you need to care for your employees. When you call it what it truly is – love – you start to see how those behaviors translate into good business outcomes.
He gives us some incredible advice regarding how to grow and scale a small business without ruining the work culture. Surprise! It always comes back to leadership. When you’re hiring based on a shared set of values, rather than hiring as quickly as possible in order to grow, you see that those values actually scale rather well.
We also talk about what sets apart the companies that make Monday-to-Friday drag and those that people love to work for, as well as the six distinct behaviors you can put into place to start seeding a healthy and happy culture.
