The pandemic brought about swift change and company culture was thrust firmly into the spotlight. Remote working, coupled with the accelerated adoption of digital tools, and individuals evaluating work/life balance all became the norm and business leaders were tasked with keeping everything on track.

In this episode of the Essex Business Podcast, we look at how a strong organisational culture, clear vision and robust company values can have a huge impact on everything from recruitment and retention, right through to the bottom line. 

Jonathan Austin, CEO at  Best Companies , explains the importance of a strong company culture, how to create meaningful change and how the Best Companies employee engagement survey can encourage and celebrate an engaged workforce;  Angela Dellar , Professional Certified Leadership Coach, offers advice and tips on how business leaders can build better workplace cultures and cultivate a clear organizational identity; and Stuart Burns, Managing Director at  Dura Composites , talks about his firm’s company values, how their organisational culture has changed during the past few years, and the processes they have put in place to achieve their goals.
