From an entry level position at Enterprise Rental Car spanning over two and a half decades when he left the company as the Regional Vice President, Eric Stone learned a thing or two about CULTURE.

Through engagement and other key steps, you create Culture Carriers. Look at:

\n
• Time Management and Eisenhower\u2019s grid demarcations of Delegate, Do, Defer, or Delete
\n
• Hiring Practices to include focusing on attitude, effort, and coachability
\n
• Hold regular meetings to highlight desired outcomes, then back fill the calendar with times for training and review. 
\n
• Remember that beliefs lead to behaviors.
\n
\n
• Identify your priorities and keep them in front of your team members.
\n
• Remember that 40% of your team don\u2019t actually know what\u2019s expected of them.
\n
\n
• In exploring corporate culture, investigate the gap between Values and Behavior.
\n
• Whether working in-office, remotely, or hybrid, there are five factors of engagement that need to be focused on:
\n
\n
• Relationship with the manager
\n
• Understanding of requirements
\n
• Having and utilizing the proper tools and tech
\n
• Personal and Professional Development
\n
• Reward systems
\n
\n
• Because there\u2019s no pressure relief for those working remotely (and hybrid/remote), the stress and anger felt on one day could well carry over to the next day. Leaders need to be the pressure-relief and support.
\n
\n
• Calendar time for engagement; that\u2019s the core of leadership
\n
\n
• Explore, \u201cWhat works? And what can we do better?\u201d
\n
• Measure workplace culture via:
\n
\n
• Engagement
\n
• Experience
\n
• Ethics & Behavior balanced against Values
\n
• Sales
\n
• Retention
\n
• Growth
\n
\n
• FRAMEWORK of the Hourglass
\n
\n
• Discovery - pull information
\n
• Orchestrate - formulate and roll out priorities
\n
• Training
\n
• Assessment & Measurement
\n
• Balance Mission, Vision, and Values against Policies and Procedures
