This year Belden was recognized as a Great Place to Work. And not just a Great Place to Work in one country but in 17! It is an awesome accomplishment for any company and speaks to the "Belong. Believe. Be you" mantra that we have. While that is great for us, want to know what is sad about the Great Place to Work information overall? According to Great Place to Work, only 57% of employees at a typical U.S. based company say the company they work at is a great place to work (our number at Belden is 81%). 57%. That seems terrible. Barely half of all employees think their company is a great place to work in the U.S. Think about other metrics, tests, etc. Would 57% be sufficient? 57% on a test, 57% accuracy on your financial statement, 57% offer acceptance rate, 57% would not cut it and would require immediate action to correct. But that doesn't seem to be the case in companies and trying to make their environments a great place to work even if not going for the official certification. I think one of the reasons the number is so low is because of the approach many of us bring to work. It is often only results driven, only focused on a number or a dollar, and too often the human element is left out and ignored. In recruiting, we hear the bad and the good of different companies with the amount of conversations we have with people looking to change jobs or who are out of a job. A similar theme that I hear in my conversations is that companies and managers take the Dumb and Dumber approach to trying to make their company and environment a better place to work...

Of all our achievements at Flock Consulting, this one stands out as one of the best. When I started Flock five and a half years ago, my main goal was to create a workplace where people loved coming to work. Before that, I had worked in toxic environments where staff were merely seen as tools for income, and customers were not viewed as long-term partners. One day, I decided that instead of constantly complaining to my wife, I should take action. That's when Flock was born. From the beginning, I knew we needed to build everything around a strong set of values and a positive culture. These principles drive everything we do, both internally and externally. They shape how we work together as a team and how we engage with our customers. I firmly believe that a happy team that enjoys their work leads to happy customers through the high quality of work driven by a passion to always do our best. To me, this is not rocket science, yet I still see many toxic environments and leaders who haven't realised that true leadership doesn't come from creating a toxic workplace. Being shortlisted for this award fills me with pride, knowing we are on the right path. The application process was a great way to show our team that we truly care. Despite our high score, we identified areas where we can still improve. This is an ongoing journey, and our aim is to keep enhancing the work we have done so far. Big thanks to the whole team who make Flock and Reportabl. one of the Best Places to Work Spencer Ho Glenn David Daniel Matthee Mark Turner Darren Morrow Amanda Kwok Katie Double Hannah Oldroyd Andrew Wong Andrew Watts Sanae Herd Bee Kaan Rose McPherson Kieran M.

We see companies showcasing "Great Place To Work" as a badge of honour and more often than not a way to attract good talent when in reality the situation is something else. 🙈 😅 So I want to know what is actually a "Great Place To Work" for employees. For me, a great place to work is an organisation that promotes: 1. Empowerment - Giving employees autonomy and decision-making power in their roles. This leads to a more engaged and motivated workforce. 2. Strong Leadership and Vision - A clear and inspiring vision from leadership helps employees understand the organization's direction and feel motivated to contribute to its success. 3. Adaptability: Being open to change and adapting to evolving work trends and employee needs is important in today's day and age. 4. Fair Compensation: Offering competitive salaries and benefits is crucial to attracting and retaining top talent. Let me know what makes an organisation a "Great Place To Work" for you. 😄💻
