Creating a culture in the workplace that is both inspiring internally and externally is ongoing. It can be exhausting as an owner to create quality training that invests in staff so that they feel valued and have the tools to independently create amazing customer service experiences.
I know from experience, (and from stats), that investing in staff training helps employees to feel valued. Feeling valued is key to keeping staff happy, engaged, and productive at work!
When our staff are happy, skilled, and inspired by what they do this translates right into excellent customer service. Customers become loyal fans, spend more money, and give great referrals.
Achieving these results is not happenstance, it comes with an investment of both time and money.
As a business owner time can be in short supply! I’ve been there. This is the purpose for Creating a Culture Deck. Time to support, train, and inspire staff is tight. Creating content to support, train, and inspire staff . . . exhausting.
This deck provides small and medium business owners with a powerful resource to educate, inspire, and train staff which makes them feel more valued. This always translates to increased profit and decreased stress.

Staff Profile – Perfect Copy & Print
My name is uh Shannan Campbell. Right now I am currently working as a graphic designer and a print technician at an awesome locally owned print shop in capitol hill called Perfect Copy & Print.

Creating a Culture Deck – Week 5 – Discussion Question
And the question for the week is: “What’s one thing that you admire about your co-worker?” Just one person, and it might even be your boss. So what’s one thing you admire about that person?
Oh wow, um, that’s a good question. Um I would say that, um, and I’ll be talking about um the shop’s owner Amanda. She, and I can honestly say this, is the best boss and, you know, person I’ve ever worked for.
She truly cares about her employees and her community and her business in a way that I’ve never really experienced before. Um, and it’s not just like, she cares about making money. She cares about like, having an impact in a positive way and, and, you know, doing things that are actually going to create like a positive impact in the community.
And she, she’s actively and like involved in many groups. And, I mean, I swear she’s in meetings all day long, like, you know, just different advocacy groups and things.

Um, and, and not only on that aspect but also the way that she interacts and treats her employees, um. Like, the level of collaboration and respect like, I, you know, I’ve only worked for her for four months, and I feel like I can tell her anything or ask her for anything.
I will always be responded to with like, the utmost respect, and she will listen, and she will like take action on stuff in a way that it, it’s just, it’s crazy. Like, I’ve literally, I just, it makes me feel very valued.
