Towards building an ideal Workplace
Sudheesh Venkatesh
It starts with the mix of people:
The workplace is the collective of the people we hire. It has a life & has its own DNA. An organization is like a well maintained garden, where the right seeds are sown, plants are nurtured, variety is encouraged and weeds are removed. Similarly, to create an ideal workplace, we pick talented people with matching values, develop them, foster diversity & manage out people who do not pull their weight.
In an ideal workplace, people know what is in & what is out:
Companies that have got close to creating an ideal workplace have repeatedly drummed into their people what is in & what is out. In such companies, people march to the same beat, while retaining their fierce individuality. Everyone, regardless of their job, their position or country follows the core values of the company.
