Business culture can have a significant impact on the work environment and ultimately business success. A positive business culture will affect productivity and the difference can be huge. Customer service – the ultimate goal of any business – will be impacted either positively or negatively by the underlying business culture. And business growth will be positive or stagnant dependent on culture.

  1. Productivity – A positive business culture will have a profound influence on productivity. In fact some estimates peg the affect at 20-30 percent. Establishing and cultivating a positive culture translates to business success. When members of the organization understand what company mission and objectives are everyone works together toward a common goal. Thus achieving goals becomes easier. A positive culture reduces workplace stress thus employees are happier and naturally contribute more.

  3. Business Growth – Superior customer service leads to improved business growth. Customer retention rates increase and new customers are more readily acquired.
