🏆 I'm very happy that Plative has been recognized as a "Great Place to Work" for the 5th consecutive year! 🎉 What's the secret behind this recognition? Here's my take: Support the team: We jump in and roll up our sleeves to support each other. Promote growth: We're passionate about helping our team members grow, take on new challenges, and build their brand. Client-centric approach: Our commitment to delivering the best outcomes for our clients is unwavering. Culture of collaboration: We prioritize collaboration among our team, clients, and partners. Honesty above all: Transparency and honesty are two of my, and Platives core values Empathetic coaching: Coach with empathy, understanding that each individual's journey is unique. Creating a great workplace isn't only about perks and benefits—it's about fostering a culture where everyone thrives.

1 year ago this week, I got laid off. I went to bed the night before absolutely certain I was getting laid off the next day, and told my husband. Sure enough, by 9AM I had "the meeting" on my calendar. My summer was spent applying, interviewing, and doing a lot of stress baking. But I also took the time to make sure I picked the right next step for me. One of the most important things for me was a company who had a target customer that I had emotional resonance with. I lucked out: I found a fantastic company with a great team. I'm not posting this as one of those self-promoting posts that are all too common on LinkedIn these days – I'm sharing because Collective is hiring for a lot of roles right now, with more to come. While we don't have a cute "ian" name for our team, we do have: - A remote-friendly workforce (even roles that are location-specific don't require daily office trips, unless you want that.) - Genuinely nice people to work with - A culture that values transparency, willing to try new things, and progress over perfection. Sound like a fit? Take a look at our open roles: https://lnkd.in/gnAYnBR4

As a leader, there are two types of positive feedback from my team that warm my heart. One is, "I wanna be like you when I grow up" (oh, sweet Gen Z, you're so kind), and the other is, "I've never worked in a team like this before" from our new hires (last quarter we successfully onboarded four people). Our team thrives in a friendly and supportive atmosphere, where there's no internal competition but a collective drive towards a common goal. We have a deep connection and respect for each other's efforts. I truly believe that a positive team atmosphere significantly boosts productivity and job satisfaction. Happy people work better. As a team lead, I've learned a lot about maintaining this team vibe. Here are some basic principles I follow: - Love your people - Trust them - Listen to them - Support and protect them - Help them grow That's my recipe for a succeeding team. Do you have similar experiences or different thoughts? P.S. We're hiring!

You’ve seen these bags all over Belfast, now you can be part of the team behind them! I had the pleasure of hearing Dave Linton speak about Madlug™ a few years ago in my Queen's Business School MBA course and have enjoyed watching it grow and do more good. The simple idea that a foster child deserves something better than a black bin bag to carry their stuff with them has a HUGE impact. 🫶🏽 An couple incredible opportunities to collect a paycheck with purpose. And if you aren’t looking for a job, consider buying one of their bags. 🎒 — — 👋🏽 Hi, have we met? I’m an innovative intrapreneur with a flair for sales, marketing, strategy and education.

Big news, friends - our first full-time hire is coming on board next week. Here's how we approached this unconventional hiring process: 1. Lightning fast - Pinged him in the morning, had dinner together the same day 2. Vision alignment - Prioritize someone who truly gets what we're trying to achieve 3. Culture first - Focus on cultural fit before diving into skills 4. Genuine connection - Our dinner talk? LinkedIn, creators, family, and cricket - not the role 5. Ego at the door - Approached the conversation with humility and openness 6. Authenticity wins - Being easily approachable and open to real discussions The result? We found someone who feels like they've been part of our journey all along. I can't wait to see what we'll achieve together. Keep an eye on this space – I'll be sharing more about our new team member and our exciting plans soon. P.S. What's your best tip for welcoming a new hire?
