Reflecting on the insights shared by Ahmad Al Cheikh Hassan about the pivotal role of organizational culture in employee retention, it's clear that the true essence of a workplace extends far beyond its financial incentives. As Ahmad rightly pointed out, while monetary reasons may influence an employee's decision to leave, it's the culture—or lack thereof—that dictates their likelihood of return. The discussion sheds light on an often overlooked aspect of employee satisfaction: the environment in which they work. It's not just about the salary or the perks; it's about feeling valued, respected, and part of something greater than oneself. An environment where respect, understanding, and mutual growth are not just corporate slogans, but the very foundation of the organizational ethos. This serves as a crucial reminder for all of us, especially those in leadership positions, to prioritize the nurturing of our company cultures. Our focus should be on building an atmosphere that fosters respect, empathy, and mutual support—a workplace where every member feels seen, heard, and appreciated. Leaders have the unique opportunity to craft environments that empower individuals to thrive. By doing so, we not only enhance our team's satisfaction and productivity but also cement our organization's reputation as a desirable place to work. Let Ahmad's words inspire us to reflect on our own organizational cultures. Are we creating spaces where our employees feel valued beyond their paychecks? In our pursuit of business excellence, let's not overlook the power of a positive, nurturing workplace culture. After all, it's the foundation upon which lasting success is built.

An employee who left your organisation for money, may come back for money. But an employee who left for culture would never come back even for money. An employee departing due to dissatisfaction with the organization's culture signals a deep-rooted issue. It highlights the necessity of a fertile company culture where individuals thrive, not merely exist. It is the responsibility of an organization to cultivate a culture that employees value beyond their paychecks. Money, at the end of the day, is a tangible asset, but culture is intangible - it's about nurturing an environment where respect, understanding, and mutual growth permeate every corner. It's about creating a space where employees feel valued, heard, and seen; a space that they are proud to be a part of, that they would not leave. So, before considering the next salary hike, let's think about fostering a culture that makes employees want to stay. Because once a good employee leaves for a poor culture, there is no monetary offer that would bring them back. Let's focus on building bridges of trust and respect, rather than walls of discontent. For it is the culture of an organization that truly retains its most valuable asset - its people. #culture #culturematters #people #peoplefirst #employeeexperience #retention #value #humancapital #hr #humanresources #business #strategy #hrstrategy #team #linkedin #linkedinconnections #aach
