Industry Leaders On Culture

The smartest organization in the world, that has mastered strategy, finance, marketing and technology, will eventually fail if its (culture) is unhealthy." Patrick Lencioni, Author

"Companies with a positive culture have better performance, productivity and profits than those without." The Deloitte Global Human Capital Trends Report

Clients On Our Culture Framework

Mike Minkler, President

CMIT Solutions

Industry: IT

"We engaged LifeWork Systems in a culture transformation project because we had employee retention and trust challenges. Our turnover has dropped by over 50% and employee morale and trust has never been higher. The business value and ROI are definitely there. Everyone is happier and enjoying life more. I'd say that's priceless."

Maxine Clark, Founder/CEO

Build-A-Bear Workshop

Industry: Retail

"I met with LifeWork Systems and learned about their responsibility-based culture model and thought, 'everyone should be using this.' I also read Judy Ryan's book "What's the Deal With Workplace Culture Change?" Within it are proven processes and tools that ensure employees reach their potential and achieve quality results."

Kevin Shrake, VP & COO

MDR

Industry: Healthcare

"MDR is a resource for many healthcare organizations. One of the best practices we have found in the marketplace is LifeWork Systems. People don't think it's possible to financially turnaround a company PLUS improve customer and employee satisfaction. Yes! It CAN happen at the same time using their responsibility-based culture model."

Lauren Kolbe, Owner/CEO

KolbeCo

Industry: Marketing/PR

"We had problems with employees and teamwork. People were gossiping, sabotaging and lashing out for reasons we couldn't grasp. We thought we had a good culture. Yet things were off. LifeWork Systems has made an incredible impact. Our company now has a REAL CULTURE - one we're all proud of."

Lisa Meyer,  RVP Ops

RehabCare

Industry: Long-Term Care

"A competitor acquired our company and we were struggling to understand our new identity. LifeWork Systems helped our senior executives and then our front line employees. We greatly improved by utilizing a responsibility-based workplace model in multiple facilities within my 1000+ person region, improving our growth and revenues."

Why You MUST Fix and Improve Your Culture to Stay Productive and Competitive

Change is happening at the speed of imagination, often causing high levels of confusion and strain on individuals and organizations. Today’s technologies and digital solutions must be mapped to agile workforce behaviors. All team members in every role must be able to both lead and follow dynamically and innovate on the fly as needs dictate, with confidence, no matter title or tenure.

In order to meet today’s requirement for collaboration and fluidity, each must know how to be personally responsible to manage their own relationships, productivity, engagement and progress. When they do, they take initiative, work well together and operate from their greatest gifts and talents.

Your people are your greatest asset. Providing a supportive, 21st century “Teal” culture is key to attracting and developing them into people who help serve one another and your customers so you end up with an organization in which your staff and customers fully engage, stay and remain loyal.

“I submit that too often there is a lack of commitment to, practice of, and execution of professional common behaviors – an absence of highly communicated standardized organizational expectations – without which there are no supports upon which the Agile bar can be confidently raised. I would highly recommend the LifeWork Systems model to both small and large organizations. I believe it would build a solid platform base enabling many organizations to truly benefit from the Agile principles and coaching in ways that we only infrequently experience today.”
