Two colleagues discuss Sean Glaze's keynote on workplace culture. They highlight the value of clear expectations between leaders and employees, and the power of specific gratitude for good work. Both plan to apply these ideas to strengthen their own organization.
Beneficial and inspiring. He had a couple of moments of levity, which I think always helps, and I love the personal experience. I think that we try really hard at our company to make connections, but I don't think we try hard enough. I think we need even more of it, especially down in the department areas. So he inspired me. I want to be great at it, and I want all our people to be great at it.
The part about expectations, having leaders and employees on the same page with regards to expectations. It's very hard for team members to meet expectations if they don't know what those are. And the gratitude that you show to your team, specific gratitudes for specific jobs well done, that's been something that we've been trying to implement. And we're just— it was nice to see him highlight that. That's something that I completely agree with, and I've seen the fruits of doing that.
