For a stronger business tomorrow:
1. The worst time to offer someone a pay rise or promotion is when they have just handed in their notice.
2. You don’t have a “work from home” issue, you have trust issues.
3. People don’t just quit jobs, they quit bad managers.
4. Company culture is not bean bags, free beer or a subscription to a meditation app.
5. If your team doesn't feel comfortable to say “I don’t know” or “I disagree.” You have a lot of progress to make.
6. If you’re not paying people what they are worth, they will find someone who will.
7. Employees have 4X better engagement when getting clear and consistent feedback.
8. Micromanagement does not mean “hard work”, it means your taking away employee freedom.
9. If your entry-level job advert requires work experience... then it's not an "entry-level" job. It's a normal job paying an entry-level salary to an experienced worker.
10. If the actions of managers do not align with company values, employee trust will be destroyed and never recovered.
11. If you are sick, you need to go to a doctor or your child is sick… it should never be counted as annual leave.
12. When you take care of your team, your team will take care of your clients and customers in return.
13. Never expect your new employees to “hit the ground running” if you aren’t providing a fantastic and comprehensive onboarding programme.
14. The fastest way to kill company culture is to let toxic behaviour be tolerated and even rewarded.
15. It will cost you a whole lot more to replace someone than it was to pay them what they were worth in the first place.
