WHY CULTURE MATTERSHow to find and retain the best employees
“Your employees come first. And if you treat your employees right, guess what? Your customers come back, and that makes your shareholders happy.
Start with employees and the rest follows from that."

Recommended Reading
“The true price of leadership is the willingness to place the needs of others above your own. Great leaders truly care about those they are privileged to lead and understand that the true cost of the leadership privilege comes at the expense of self-interest.”
- Simon Sinek, Leaders Eat Last
Recommended Viewing“Simon Sinek: Why Leaders Eat Last”
FEEDBACK IS A GIFTIt doesn’t come with a gift receipt
Do people know what you’re trying to accomplish? Does everyone know how they contribute to your goals? Can your newest employee explain what you do? Do people feel relevant and appreciated?
Clarity
Ask
Listen
ReflectAct
Communicate
Feedback Process
"The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them. They have either lost confidence that you can help them or concluded that you do not care. Either case is a failure of leadership."

What Gets Measured Gets Managed
WORK HARD, PLAY HARDIt’s okay to have fun
PerspectiveAre you in a life or death business?

Ask yourself: What’s working? What’s not? Celebrate the small wins You have impact – no matter what your role Life is short and some things can’t be changed
Parting Words
