Change Culture in the Workplace with Positive Leadership
Attrition in the workplace due to a weak or negative culture can significantly affect a business’s bottom line. Turnover due to cultural issues has cost organizations $223 billion in recent years.
Fortunately, organizations can minimize costly turnover from within by developing strong leaders who prioritize a positive and open workplace culture.
Whether your current office culture needs a complete overhaul or just a revitalization, CMOE can serve as your cultural-transformation partner. With our help, your leaders learn how to change the culture in the workplace, uplift morale, and promote productive collaboration within teams and across the organization.
CMOE’s Approach to Developing Positive Leaders and Workplace Culture
To create strong and inspiring leaders, you need trainers you can trust. CMOE has worked with numerous companies across different industries in organizations around the world since 1978. Our years of experience have shown us that a one-size-fits-all approach to leadership development simply won’t do the job; development initiatives must be meaningful and relevant for each organization, achieved through careful listening and a customized approach.
Our approach to leadership development is simple but effective:
- Customized training options: Our wide range of training and development resources gives you the flexibility to choose what aligns with your leaders’ growth goals, ensuring your organization’s priorities are met.
- Guided practice sessions: Leaders have the opportunity to practice the skills they learn during the training experience to ensure they are comfortable using the skills once they return to work.
Continued support: After training is completed, your leaders get continued reinforcement and support through our follow-up process.
I truly believe that if it wasn’t for CMOE, we would still be losing our top talent. You’ve helped so much to improve our culture and community by helping us prioritize our people, not just to keep them here, but to help them understand they have a career here and a reason to stay.
Featured Cultural Leadership Solutions
When changing the culture in the workplace is the goal, the most effective training programs and transformation efforts focus on the connection between leadership and communication. CMOE offers an array of learning options around those topics, including these representative examples:
Case Study: Cultural Transformation in Food Manufacturing
Problem
A global food processing company was struggling to attract and retain skilled hourly employees across several of its facilities. Despite offering competitive wages and improved benefits, the turnover remained high, and morale was low. Recruitment and retention efforts fell flat.
Solution
CMOE detected that the root issue was not compensation but the absence of a healthy workplace culture. Employees did not feel connected to the organization, its values, or its leadership.
With CMOE’s support, the organization developed a purpose-built culture framework that clearly articulated the beliefs, behaviors, and leadership standards expected across all facilities.
Examples of their cultural beliefs:
- We never compromise on employee or food safety.
- No one should have to work for a poor leader.
Results
- Employees felt more valued and connected to the organization.
- Engagement scores rose, turnover decreased, and recruitment improved.
- Focus groups revealed a stronger sense of pride and belonging.
