Developing Brand Awareness
When we think about our brand we tend to think about it from an external perspective; how others see us. I would suggest that it is equally important to develop your internal brand; how does your staff view you? I read an article several years ago that may help you as you consider becoming the best place to work. Consider the following:
- Have a clear vision of your company's purpose
- Hear meaningfully and take action
- Invest in your employees and your values
- Prove your trust and transparency
- Create a clear path for career development
- Cultivate a workplace atmosphere of respect
