Creating a Culture of Collaboration

What happens when an organization works without a defined system, appropriate plans and employee discipline? Perhaps, in simpler terms, there will be a chaotic culture, inefficiency and slack growth and poor employee performance. At large, disruption and disloyalty leads to spoilt workplace atmosphere.

A company’s culture doesn’t make sense when there’s no sense of ownership, no sense of responsibility, no sincere commitments and communication, no truthfulness and team-spirit and no employee engagement. It should be understood that when there are no commitments, there can be no outcomes, when there is no certainty, there can be no competence, when there is no productivity, there can be no profits, and when there is no substantial revenue, there can be no progress. Call it a derailed culture that needs corrective procedures for the wellness of the company.

A simple lesson that can be learnt from a school environment is the way a drillmaster make his students learn specific exercises and instills a sense of discipline into their minds. Definitely, without discipline nothing works. Likewise, reading the pulse of a company culture, a good leader must adopt change management concept for good outcomes.

When employees become trustworthy, sincere and conscious enough, then there will be an air of obedience, an abstract mechanism that makes employees to do their jobs, without any distraction or negativism. 

That’s the culture, which can simply bolster employees’ spirits and make them enthusiastic, fuse their motivation and energy for great results, and charge their attitudes to do what they have to do and aspire, as a team, for the very progress of their company.

Collaboration, besides fostering employee engagement, allows companies to boost their overall productivity, assess and improve business performance, accelerate innovation for profitable outcomes, establish strong presence in the marketplace, raise efficiency by simplifying internal processes and achieve significant cost savings.

However, with cohesive efforts and inspiring motivation, worthwhile employee recognition and rewards and appropriate growth opportunities, it becomes easier for the management to create a truly collaborative environment and keep employee morale at a high.

Let’s create a culture of collaboration with motivated, engaged and happy workforce!
