6月，推荐全球十大博彩公司排行榜启动了BW领导力学院 查普曼 & Co. 领导学院, 点击这里阅读更多) to provide training and resources to organizations ready to build people-centric cultures inside their own organizations. 最近，迈克Budden，创始人和董事 Cebano咨询, 旅行超过8次,距离开普敦500英里, South Africa to participate in the 领导学院’s foundational course, 超出基准测试. 而在美国, 布登和一群同事还参观了其他几家公司, 像Barry-Wehmiller, are “beacons of hope” because of their commitment to creating workplaces that lead to fulfilled, 富有激情的团队成员. 在他的客座帖子中，Mike分享了他和他的团队的经历.
South Africa is a beautiful, exciting, adventurous place with much opportunity. Yet, it has many challenges that often drive people to despair, apathy and deep fear. We often question the applicability and appropriateness of what we hear and see elsewhere in the world that appears to be more evolved than our context.
Cebano, 我工作的组织, has a vision to contribute to the transformation of society through enhancing the wellbeing of organizations. And it is in this that I am blessed to work with an amazing team of executives who lead the Peninsula Beverage Company, 南非西开普省的可乐装瓶厂. This team is leading a journey to evolve what has been a very positive culture in our South African context into a great and endearing one, as recognized by Raj Sisodia and colleagues in both Firms of Endearment and Conscious Capitalism.
经常在建筑中工作, 工程和制造公司, 当向不同的团队提出这些概念时, 我经常一副疲惫的样子, 虽然这对他们来说很有意义, 他们觉得很难接受这是真的. 对于大多数, 他们关于可爱文化的想法属于零售商的范畴, IT公司之类的. Having been inspired by Raj’s work and a further blessing of coming across Bob 查普曼’s Tedx talk and Simon Sinek’s work, 当我遇到巴里·韦米勒时，我欣喜若狂, 因为在这里, a “hard-core” manufacturing and engineering company was showing the same thing of what is possible.
对我来说, 更伟大的事情即将到来, for the Peninsula Beverage Company Director team decided to make their journey a literal one. 2015年4月底, we embarked on a culture tour of selected US companies whom we thought either were exemplars of or on a journey towards a conscious and endearing culture. 这次旅行在很多方面都超出了推荐全球十大博彩公司排行榜的预期. We learned a significant amount of the how this was done – we were inspired by their “why”, 他们的目的, 这是如何实现的. And we were encouraged and spurred on to persevere and continue on this journey back home.
对于这个由七名高管组成的团队, who left their families and their business in the hands of their people for two weeks, an even further massive benefit was the development of a deeper cohesion as a team. 推荐全球十大博彩公司排行榜不能低估这种影响. We are firm believers that organizational health is based on a cohesive top team. This is a team that has been transforming their understanding of primary team, 作为领导者的自我意识和发展彼此之间深厚的信任关系, 一种基于能力的信任, 真诚和深切的关怀. So for them to have experienced this tour together has been an invaluable investment – no one of them would have ever been able to recount their experiences and learning that would have done it justice. 这不仅仅是访问, 但那是在中间的时间——在车里的时间, 在机场, on the planes where we had deep meaningful conversations about what we were experiencing and learning.
参观七家公司，推荐全球十大博彩公司排行榜的收获可想而知. Starting with Barry-Wehmiller’s 超出基准测试 course set a great framework and a lens for us to view the further organizations we were going to visit. 这些公司的一些特点包括以下主题:
• Genuine care and deep relationships, based on the principles of family and parenting
• Trusted by others and trusting in others, believing in the intentions of people to do good
•移情倾听, really understanding where the other is and why they see things the way they do
•让人们能够胜任自己的角色, not policing them but removing the frustration and encouraging them to learn and grow
• Helping people be the best they can be – discovering their gifts and exercising them in a way that they are in flow, 精力充沛，对所做的事情充满激情
• Bringing the people and the processes into harmony – that these businesses can still do all they need to from a smart aspect, with all their intensity and excellence and yet still care for people – not an either or, 但这两者都是关于关心和卓越的, 头脑和心
•庆祝和认可, 培养善良的地方，重视人, 明白环境是由人的能量创造的
我认为在这一切的背后, 最重要的主题是看到推荐全球十大博彩公司排行榜每个人的基本人性, 真正把对方看作人而不是物. 这是最让我感动的——不管推荐全球十大博彩公司排行榜身处什么环境, 推荐全球十大博彩公司排行榜都是和人一起工作——每个人都很重要. 每个人都是某人的母亲或父亲, 兄弟姐妹, son or daughter and have the same hopes and dreams as we do for our own families.
I came away believing even more so that this is crucial for South Africa – for our leaders in business, 政府, education and non-profits to know they can create a circle of safety for people to come together and experience great places to work in. These are places where they can gather strength and the character to go back home, 经常进入破碎的社会, 并在他们的家庭和社区中发挥作用. My response to anybody that questions whether this is applicable and appropriate in our context is that it is way more than that – it is essential for our country’s and our world’s future.
推荐全球十大博彩公司排行榜需要更多像推荐全球十大博彩公司排行榜参观过的公司那样的希望灯塔, 的Barry-Wehmillers, 全食超市, 门洛创新, 统一装瓶商, 塔塔的, and Container Stores amongst a growing number of businesses that are awakening us to greater possibilities. 推荐全球十大博彩公司排行榜在全世界都需要他们! My cup will be overflowing when I see leaders fostering great workplaces where people experience safety, fulfillment and meaning and have hope for greater wellbeing in all aspects for themselves and their families.
