Would you like to know why there are so many businesses that fail? And some even did all the right things to establish their business and they still failed?
Why?
This is because they did not establish a clear culture for the business.
At ArtSHINE we use the word "Culture" to encompass the combined values of a business.
The culture is the foundation of the Vision and Mission of your business.
A Vision is where you want you business to be. It’s actually your purpose or your intention….
The roadmap to your vision is your Mission. A mission is your HOW.
This requires 4 key areas:
• Who are you…?
• What business are you in…?
• Who are your customers…?
• What make us unique and quirky?
So take time out of your business today to really define and review your business culture.
Once you have your business culture sorted, you can then use this information to communicate with your stakeholders, particularly your team. Make sure the culture of your business is empowering, challenging, and setting good benchmarks for your team to follow too.
If you are just starting out it's important to focus on building a sound foundation for your business culture at the early stages rather than later. Remember to do regular revision to ensure your culture is still in line with your vision. Picture your culture like the air, you and your team need to breath it and live it !
