Do You Consider Yourself To Be A Flawless Company?

To start this off, I want you to answer the following question:

Do you consider yourself to be a flawless Company?

Nowadays, we want to normalize everything, meaning make everything feel like it's normal.

In a world, full of imperfections, there isn't always a norm.

What one might consider "normal" isn't always normal to someone else.

However, I come to challenge you today, for the sake of all mankind, if you truly want to normalize something, normalize this:

Allowing your employees to have a voice in your Company.

The ones who might just know how to make things look better, flow better, or help create better processes/systems are those, in the trenches, doing the work day in and day out.

Here is what prompted this article - Our interns shared some important things about our Company that we felt actually made sense and if we listen, can cause us to be more up-to-date with the times; more current, and more vibrant.

It's then that I realized, from an owner's perspective but also from an employee perspective that I haven't seen inside one single business that doesn't have at least one flaw or something they could do better - not one single Company!

There are even multi-billion dollar organizations with flaws.

Why do I say this?

Because, when you are doing marketing, you see inside Companies.

You see the great, good, bad, and ugly.

Marketing is a great process because it allows you to hold hands with the business owner and if they allow, create a better image, grow with them and watch them build a stronger business. If they don't listen, they just don't grow and they fall away from our marketing attempts.

Usually, the bigger a company gets, the more problems they have.

The more people you have working for you, the more humanity you have under one umbrella. It's awesome but it's also no joke (especially when it comes to management).

There are NO perfect Companies because there are no perfect people.

• There are companies that proclaim to be great and have a great company culture and yet people quit working there all the time and complain about how bad it was. I've experienced that first hand.
• There are companies that have the culture down but have issues with workflow.
• There are companies where the boss is always right and no one else has a voice.
• There are companies that meet all the criteria for "inclusion & diversity" and yet they have only 3-4 people in their diversity club. (Haha, I truly think this is sad but funny).
• There are businesses that overwork their staff. (I won't name any names).

We all have our flaws, even J29 Creative Group, but where we can shine through and make a difference is when we all work together, as a team, to make things better, all the time; keeping our eyes and ears open to our staff members and listening to how they feel and see we can improve. #humility

Working with the staff to create a better Company, not just for us, but for them and for everyone we are involved with.

We care about our:

⭐️Clients

⭐️Employees

⭐️Contractors

⭐️Business

⭐️Culture

⭐️Processes

⭐️ Systems

⭐️Experiences

⭐️Creativity

⭐️Effectiveness

⭐️Internal Development

⭐️External Development

⭐️Product / Service Delivery

⭐️Customer Service

⭐️Relationships

⭐️Communication

And yet...after all this, we are just a work in progress.

We will always change and always evolve and we will listen because that is what makes someone great, that is what makes a Company GREAT.

This is what makes a Company outshine its flaws.

What are your thoughts on this?
