We reduced our turnover from 108% to 33% in just 2 years! 🚀 At BlueCotton, we believe that a company's most valuable asset is its people. Here's how we made major strides in improving retention and cultivating a culture where people actually want to come to work: ✅ Hired a Talent & Culture Manager – Rather than a traditional HR role, we brought in someone to focus specifically on building and nurturing a positive, high-performing culture. ✅ Revamped our Hiring Process – We moved from a single interview to a 3-step process that includes multiple team members and skill assessments to ensure we're bringing in the best fit for both skills and culture. ✅ Proper Onboarding – We created "The Best First Day Ever!" – ensuring new hires feel welcomed, engaged, and ready to contribute from day one. ✅ Personal Development Classes – We invested in our team's growth through ongoing learning and development opportunities. ✅ Out of the Box Benefits – We looked beyond the basics to offer benefits that truly matter to our team and would make a long lasting impact. This is just the beginning! We are turning this experience into a series with Julie Denton to share how we’re continuously improving and investing in our people and culture. We’d love to hear your feedback. Stay tuned for more! #TeamCulture #EmployeeRetention #TalentManagement

One of the many ways Greyston has created a more equitable workplace is via open hiring policies.

The Colliers culture is very clear, and is woven into every aspect of our business: 1) Respect and Appreciate One Another, 2) Compete with Honor, 3) Collaborate and Innovate, 4) Be Community Minded, 5) Support Life | Work Balance, 6) Have Fun while Working Hard, 7) Be Open to New Possibilities (intellectual agility), and 8) Leadership that Listens. These clear statements not only attract the right team members, they also repel those not willing or able to live up to them. Over time, these clear milestones have created a culture that is recognized throughout the Arizona commercial real estate community as the model for the industry and one which unleashes the greatness of our team in working together to serve our clients. We extend our gratitude to our team, our clients, and AZ Big Media for recognizing Colliers as one of the 100 Best Places to Work in Arizona for 2024! #RankingArizona #LeadershipExcellence #WorkplaceCulture Learn more about our Colliers team: https://ow.ly/Qvsy50RPvf4

In a world where work and personal life often intersect, a culture that supports work-life integration becomes a competitive advantage. Respecting each other isn't just a courtesy; it's the foundation of a healthy workplace culture. Profit is essential, but purpose gives meaning to work. So...what is culture? On the most basic level, Forbes defines workplace culture as, "The core values, belief systems, attitudes, and the set of assumptions that people in a workplace share." Do the following words describe the "daily grind" of working at CENTURY 21 Northland? ► Friendly ► Collaborative ► Respect ► Family ► Motivating ► Integrity ► Comfortable ► Supportive ► Professional ► Positive ► Challenging ► Celebrate ► Gather Input ► Diversity of Thought ► Rewarding 100% yes. The best words, however, come from those who live this day in and day out the CENTURY 21 Northland REALTORS® and Administrative Staff as well as from our Broker/Owners. #companyculturematters C21Northland.com #companyculturearchitects #companyculture #culture #leadership #workplaceculture #cultureandvalues #organizationalculture #workethic #michiganrealestate #michiganrealtor #c21agent #c21broker #meaganluce #century21northland #northernmichigan #welivethisstuff Meagan Luce

It’s my 4 year anniversary with Baker Hill this month! 4 years at a company I am so proud to be a part of—that has been named one of The Indianapolis Star’s #2024TopWorkplaces! When I joined in May of 2020, I hadn’t been actively looking. In fact, I almost didn’t answer the recruiter’s call. The day of my first phone interview, there was a wind sheer that knocked down all of the power lines on my street, so I almost rescheduled, but something told me to find a way to make it work. So… I drove to the Culver’s parking lot and apologized for not being on camera and also being a bit frazzled. It was May of 2020 after all. I was a full-time career woman balancing the needs of a 4th grader struggling to use a computer mouse and learning to log into zoom for e-learning/dance lessons/drumming, a 4 year old missing her preschool routine and friends to play with, an IT-professional-husband working to help his large company pivot all systems, programs, and people to a remote environment, my beloved employees who all had various stressors and obligations needing a caring ear and patience, my newly appointed role as head chef for all family meals (breakfast-lunch-dinner)—and now I had no power (for 3 days), no groceries, and a phone interview for with a fintech, when I had only ever worked for large manufacturers. From the very first conversation, despite being “an outsider” in the space, despite the crazy times we were living in, despite the fear of disappointing my current employer and my wonderful team—something about Baker Hill felt like the right fit. The people felt like the right fit. It’s hard to describe the Baker Hill culture. It can be intense—but also rewarding. We run lean—but we are incredibly efficient and agile. Sometimes my role can feel overwhelming and like I am the only person in my boat—but if I reach out, there is always someone offering to help and a better idea. No company or culture is perfect, but Baker Hill’s DNA is pretty special. Karen Baker and Mark Hill built a solid foundation that has stood the test of time. They invested in good people—good people who wanted to help clients succeed and wanted their peers to succeed too. There are some wickedly talented and smart individuals at Baker Hill. Sometimes I am intimidated. How will I ever fully understand our industry? Our products? Where we need to go? How to get there? How to be an effective leader? How to make change? But if Baker Hill has taught me one thing—it’s this. Change is constant. Improvement is continuous. It’s about evolution—and progress. As my amazing mentor and leader Todd Juracek says WAY TOO OFTEN… “Every day counts.” So, let’s go “up and to the right.” (Per Amber) Congrats Baker Hill! “We the people” did this…. And, we’re just getting started. #2024TopWorkplaces #companyculture #bakerhill #40yearsofevolvinglending

Three-Peat! 🏆🏆🏆 This week, New Western was recognized as a Glassdoor Best Place to Work for a 3rd consecutive year! Three years in a row speaks to the grit, accountability, and competitiveness that define our team. When you empower people to shape the culture of the workplace, it creates a high-performance environment that attracts talent capable of overcoming obstacles and driving results. Very few companies achieve this kind of consistency, and it sets us apart—not just from competitors, but from almost every workplace out there. Now comes the challenge of working even harder and taking our #BestPlaceToWork culture to a place even the Los Angeles Lakers, Chicago Bulls, and New York Yankees couldn’t reach - 4 in a row! Oh, and by the way... WE’RE HIRING! 🚀 #Glassdoor #ThreePeat #NewWestern #LifeAtNewWestern #SalesJobs #RealEstateJobs

Celebrating Labor Day made me think not only about recognizing the dedication of workers across all fields and celebrating the innovators and doers who drive progress and keep our communities and economies thriving, but also about how labor and the labor force have evolved dramatically. From the industrial revolution to the digital age, the nature of work has changed tremendously, bringing new challenges and opportunities. I believe today’s workforce is more dynamic and interconnected than ever before. Certainly more than when I started my work journey. Today’s workforce needs to adapt more quickly to technological advancements and shifting societal needs. As the CEO of Junior Achievement of South Florida, I see the changing perspectives of the next generation entering the workforce. They view labor differently. They: ▪️value flexibility, purpose, and innovation ▪️ are increasingly drawn to entrepreneurship ▪️are eager to carve out their own paths ▪️ want to make an impact on their terms With so many paths to work available today—from remote, hybrid and in person roles to the gig economy to the growing number of startup ventures—we need to recognize that labor looks different. What has not changed is the power of hard work, resilience, and the collective effort that moves individuals and organizations forward.
