Many businesses focus on creating a positive environment, but common misconceptions about culture can prevent them from reaching their full potential. If your employees are disengaged or turnover rates are creeping up, you may be falling victim to these myths.
Let’s bust them open and set your culture on the right track.
The Truth: Perks like free snacks and casual Fridays might be fun, but they don’t create lasting employee satisfaction. In fact, a 2022 study by Glassdoor shows that employees value purpose and leadership support much more than perks. If your culture is built around perks rather than meaningful engagement, you're likely missing the mark.
Tap My Back goes beyond superficial perks by offering real-time employee feedback and peer recognition, helping you build a culture that makes people feel valued for their contributions, not just pampered.
The Truth: Having a set of core values is a good start, but those values need to be put into action daily to shape your culture. According to Deloitte, 65% of employees feel disconnected from their company’s stated values because those values are not reflected in day-to-day work.
Tap My Back's Role: With Tap My Back, you can regularly remind employees of your values through customized recognition and badges, helping reinforce the behaviors and principles your company stands for.
The Truth: Leadership is important, but real culture thrives when everyone in the company is engaged. Employees also have a role in shaping the workplace environment. Companies that encourage peer-to-peer recognition and continuous feedback create a sense of shared ownership in their culture.
Tap My Back's Role: Tap My Back empowers all employees, not just leaders, to contribute to the culture by giving and receiving real-time feedback, helping create a more inclusive and dynamic work environment.
The Truth: Remote work doesn't have to break your company culture. In fact, 74% of employees believe that flexible work options improve their overall job satisfaction (Gallup, 2023). The key is keeping employees connected and engaged, no matter where they work.
Tap My Back's Role: With features like mood tracking and pulse surveys, Tap My Back helps you stay in tune with your remote team's well-being, ensuring that everyone feels connected and valued, even when working from home.
The Truth: High productivity doesn’t always reflect a healthy workplace. Employees can be productive but also burned out. A 2021 Gallup report found that 76% of employees experience burnout at least sometimes. Ignoring employee well-being in favor of output can lead to long-term damage.
Tap My Back's Role: By regularly recognizing hard work and encouraging ongoing check-ins, Tap My Back helps ensure employees feel supported and appreciated, preventing burnout while maintaining productivity.
The Truth: Measuring culture may seem difficult, but it's not impossible. Employee surveys, feedback tools, and turnover rates can provide valuable insights into the health of your company culture.
Tap My Back's Role: Tap My Back provides detailed analytics from real-time feedback, mood tracking, and engagement surveys, giving you clear data on how your workplace culture is evolving and where it needs improvement.
The Truth: Different employees can experience your company culture in unique ways based on their role, team, or location. A one-size-fits-all approach won’t work when it comes to engagement.
Tap My Back's Role: With Tap My Back, you can customize recognition programs and pulse surveys to fit the specific needs of different teams, ensuring that all employees feel heard and appreciated in their own way.
