Lambrini Girls - Company Culture (Official Video)

What do YOU think of when you hear the word "CULT"😱

Does it instantly drum up images that are negative??🤬

Here's its origins: French 'culte' meaning 'worship' Latin 'cultis' meaning 'care' 'grow' Another meaning is 'devotion.'

I like the fact that there is both good & bad in absolutely everything - it's a conscious choice to how you channel it.☯️

I like that the word is used in both CULTivate & CULTure.😎

When a healthy vision, mission, intention & purpose is bred (like daily bread) & cared for & grown - it becomes the company's hidden brand.🪂

Latin 'religo' means 'good faith' & 'ritual.' Every successful global corporation practices this.

What are the traits of a good work culture?

Whether you are accepting a job offer from a new company or seeking for work, one of the most significant components of your professional life will be the good company culture. The environment or "vibe" of the workplace or organisation is so potent that it may make or break your professional experience, resulting in either long-term employment or, in the worst-case scenario, a quick return to the job market.

But what factors determine or reflect a positive business culture? It might be difficult to describe, but there are solid, quantitative indicators to look for that reflect both the health of a firm or workplace and workers' levels of pleasure at work.

How do you deal with passive-aggressive managers?

I'm struggling, please help! My manager discourages me from participating in meetings, making new connections, presents my work as hers, and takes credit for my ideas and when I try to do any of this, she takes it out on me by giving me petty jobs that are not even important. She is extremely insecure and I have tried to mold myself to work with her. But 1.5 yrs later, she is getting worse and worse and I'm getting nowhere. The situation is extremely frustrating and instead of showing maturity, I have started to retaliate. I have tried confronting to her but it hasn't led to anything fruitful.

📰Unsafety in the Workplace - My Personal Experience with Hindrance Stress

[slinkywhat]

Well, that’s one way to end an 11.5-year career at Darden.

“Our call offs are occurring at a staggering rate.”

I bet that wouldn’t be the case if you paid your employees well, treated them well, or—get this—both.

“From now on, if you call off, you might as well go out and look for another job. We are no longer tolerating ANY excuse for calling off.”

Olive Garden: Now seeking mindless drones with zero chance for illness, familial emergencies, or extraneous circumstances. Must have no other responsibilities outside of working for Olive Garden, whatsoever.

“Do you know in my 11.5 years at Darden how many days I called off? Zero. I came in sick.”

Bitch, you work in a RESTAURANT. That’s admission of major health code violations, right there.

“I got in a wreck literally on my to work one time, airbags went off and my car was totaled, but you know what, I made it to work, ON TIME!”

This is not the brag that you think it is. It’s really sad.

“If you don't want to work here, don't. It's as simple as that.”

Sure, capitalism has always made it so easy—that people passionately want to work every grueling job out there, where customers treat you like dirt, not that they need it to support themselves.

“You're in the restaurant business. Do you think I want to be here until midnight on Friday and Saturday? No. I'd much rather be at home with my husband and dog, going to the movies or seeing family. But I don't, I'm dedicated to being here. As should you.”

Really? Because not even you are making a good case for this here. You just switched from insisting people want to be there and want to work—because it is an honor and a privilege—to admitting outright that you don’t want to be there either, but you’ve committed 11.5 years to sacrificing your family to be dedicated to this job (you know, the one that just fired you instantly for sending out this mass email, because you’re a replaceable commodity… was it worth it?).

If you need to implement stricter policies and penalize or fire employees who are consistently calling out, then do it—but skip putting a toddler temper tantrum in writing (because it’s not anywhere close to communicating what you think it is), and when you’re still consistently turning over employees after you crack down, try some introspection as to why that might be.

Then, actually try to solve it, with some empathy, instead of simply blaming hundreds or thousands of people who must just be “lazy.” Because, sure—that MUST be it. Couldn’t possibly find any other commonalities amongst that many people who are dissatisfied enough to risk being fired rather than come work for you.

Generative AI: Disparities between C-suite and practitioners

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/generative-ai-disparities-between-c-suite-and-practitioners/

Generative AI: Disparities between C-suite and practitioners

.pp-multiple-authors-boxes-wrapper display:none; img width:100%;

A report by Publicis Sapient sheds light on the disparities between the C-suite and practitioners, dubbed the “V-suite,” in their perceptions and adoption of generative AI.

The report reveals a stark contrast in how the C-suite and V-suite view the potential of generative AI. While the C-suite focuses on visible use cases such as customer experience, service, and sales, the V-suite sees opportunities across various functional areas, including operations, HR, and finance.

Risk perception

The divide extends to risk perception as well. Fifty-one percent of C-level respondents expressed more concern about the risk and ethics of generative AI than other emerging technologies. In contrast, only 23 percent of the V-suite shared these worries.

Simon James, Managing Director of Data & AI at Publicis Sapient, said: “It’s likely the C-suite is more worried about abstract, big-picture dangers – such as Hollywood-style scenarios of a rapidly-evolving superintelligence – than the V-suite.”

The report also highlights the uncertainty surrounding generative AI maturity. Organisations can be at various stages of maturity simultaneously, with many struggling to define what success looks like. More than two-thirds of respondents lack a way to measure the success of their generative AI projects.

Navigating the generative AI landscape

Despite the C-suite’s focus on high-visibility use cases, generative AI is quietly transforming back-office functions. More than half of the V-suite respondents ranked generative AI as extremely important in areas like finance and operations over the next three years, compared to a smaller percentage of the C-suite.

To harness the full potential of generative AI, the report recommends a portfolio approach to innovation projects. Leaders should focus on delivering projects, controlling shadow IT, avoiding duplication, empowering domain experts, connecting business units with the CIO’s office, and engaging the risk office early and often.

Daniel Liebermann, Managing Director at Publicis Sapient, commented: “It’s as hard for leaders to learn how individuals within their organisation are using ChatGPT or Microsoft Copilot as it is to understand how they’re using the internet.”

The path forward

The report concludes with five steps to maximise innovation: adopting a portfolio approach, improving communication between the CIO’s office and the risk office, seeking out innovators within the organisation, using generative AI to manage information, and empowering team members through company culture and upskilling.

As generative AI continues to evolve, organisations must bridge the gap between the C-suite and V-suite to unlock its full potential. The future of business transformation lies in harnessing the power of a decentralised, bottom-up approach to innovation.

Why Outdoor Activities Are a Key Feature of Successful Corporate Retreats

Breaking Free from Conference Room Constraints

Picture your team stepping away from fluorescent lights and into natural sunlight, trading presentation slides for shared adventures, and replacing meeting minutes with meaningful moments. Corporate retreats have evolved beyond traditional indoor sessions, and companies are discovering that outdoor activities create the perfect environment for genuine team transformation.

The impact is measurable: organizations incorporating outdoor elements in their retreats report 32% higher team satisfaction rates and a 27% increase in post-retreat collaboration compared to those conducting purely indoor programs. These numbers tell a compelling story about why leading companies are reimagining their approach to team development.

The Science Behind Outdoor Success

Research from the Journal of Environmental Psychology reveals that spending time outdoors reduces stress hormones by up to 40%, while simultaneously increasing creative problem-solving abilities by 47%. When teams step outside together, they're not just changing their environment – they're unlocking their collective potential in ways that office environments simply cannot match.

Natural Settings, Natural Connections

The outdoor environment strips away hierarchical barriers and office personas, allowing team members to interact authentically. A senior executive struggling alongside an entry-level employee to navigate a rope course creates a shared experience that transcends organizational charts and fosters genuine connections.

Transformative Activities That Drive Results

Adventure-Based Team Challenges

Rock climbing, white water rafting, or even simple hiking expeditions create natural opportunities for:

Leadership emergence in unexpected situations

Trust-building through mutual support

Problem-solving under novel circumstances

Communication improvement through necessity

Nature-Based Strategic Planning

Taking strategic discussions outdoors transforms typical planning sessions into dynamic experiences:

Walking meetings that energize creativity

Outdoor brainstorming sessions that expand thinking

Nature-inspired innovation workshops

Environmental problem-solving challenges

Mindfulness and Team Wellness

Incorporating outdoor wellness activities provides lasting benefits:

Group yoga sessions in natural settings

Guided meditation walks

Forest bathing experiences

Team wilderness survival workshops

Real Results from Real Teams

Consider the experience of TechStart Solutions, whose development team struggled with communication barriers. After implementing a two-day retreat focused on outdoor activities:

Cross-team collaboration increased by 45%

Project completion rates improved by 28%

Employee satisfaction scores rose by 37%

Team members reported feeling "significantly closer" to their colleagues

Making Outdoor Activities Work for Your Team

Customization Is Key

The most successful corporate retreat programs align activities with team objectives:

Leadership development through mountaineering challenges

Innovation stimulation through nature exploration

Team bonding through collaborative outdoor projects

Communication enhancement through wilderness navigation

Weather-Proof Planning

Smart retreat organizers ensure success by:

Having indoor backup options ready

Selecting appropriate seasons for planned activities

Providing necessary gear and equipment

Considering accessibility for all team members

The Investment That Pays Dividends

While traditional indoor retreats might seem like the safer choice, the return on investment from outdoor-focused programs proves compelling:

40% higher retention of learning outcomes

35% improvement in team problem-solving capabilities

50% increase in reported job satisfaction

30% reduction in workplace conflicts post-retreat

Long-Term Impact

The benefits of outdoor retreat activities extend far beyond the event itself:

Teams develop shared languages and experiences

Bonds formed during outdoor challenges translate to workplace collaboration

Physical activities promote ongoing wellness initiatives

Natural environments inspire continued creative thinking

Making the Choice

When planning your next corporate retreat, consider how outdoor activities can transform standard team-building into extraordinary team experiences. The investment in outdoor-focused retreats delivers returns that traditional indoor programs simply cannot match:

Deeper team connections

Enhanced problem-solving capabilities

Improved communication patterns

Lasting organizational impact

Conclusion: Beyond the Boardroom

The most memorable and effective corporate retreats break free from traditional constraints. By incorporating outdoor activities, organizations create experiences that challenge, unite, and inspire teams in ways that indoor settings cannot replicate. As you plan your next corporate retreat, remember that the path to exceptional team performance might just lead outside.

Take the first step toward transforming your team dynamics by exploring how outdoor activities can elevate your next corporate retreat. The wilderness awaits – and with it, the opportunity for genuine team transformation.

Emergency services, natural disasters, and response type jobs are different from this.

In toxic work environments, it’s called “The Emergency Culture.” It’s when management of a company use crises to make people act. It’s waiting to act until something is very badly broken, to then provide maintenance.

The issue there is that if everything is an emergency, nothing is. Manifesting drama to manufacture increased productivity causes stress and fracturing over time and it exhausts employees. It makes people sloppy, slow to react to real emergencies and reduces the ability of staff to recognize real high risk situations.

When you work in emergency services, chances are you’re trained to evaluate cases by risk, so you know what is life or death and what’s not, so not everything is the worst kind of emergency.

But an office where emergencies are manufactured to motivate, yeah here’s the 🚩

unpopular opinion but being able to perform well under pressure should not be a required skill for the majority of job applications if not all. why are we normalizing putting stress and anxiety on people who try to make a living and making them think having to work under pressure is something that is "challenging and good" (hence it takes skills to be able to do so) instead of something that the companies should fix?

The Importance of Resilient Workplace Culture in 2025

How Sure Are You?

Lately I’ve been struck by a surprising phenomenon finding its way into all kinds of discussions. That would be the expression of certainty. It seems increasingly in many of the conversations I’m having that others have reached conclusions they feel no further need to revisit. It’s more than certainty. It’s absolute certainty. Here are some varied examples: Let me tell you what the Fed is…
