This article Got Team Spirit? Building the Ideal Company Culture <\/em>by Amy Blackburn talks about how a company’s culture plays a huge part in the amount of turnover they experience. It’s important to understand that management sets the tone and that employees must feel nurtured and feel that they’re being pushed to strive for greatness. The company needs to recognize that each individual has a unique set of needs and personality types and by meeting these needs you foster a sense of belonging, loyalty, and trust.<\/p>\n

Here are 8 steps towards a nurturing positive work environment:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
