Redefining Professionalism - There has been a shift! As executive leaders, we've witnessed a transformative shift in workplace norms over the past few years. The pre-pandemic era's "Casual Fridays" have evolved into an everyday affair, reflecting a broader change in our approach to professional attire. This ongoing casualization prompts us to reconsider professionalism in the modern workplace. Does this trend compromise the traditional decorum of business settings, or does it introduce a new era of comfort that enhances productivity and employee satisfaction? As we pivot away from the rigidity of past dress codes, it's crucial to evaluate the impact of these changes on our corporate culture and identity. I invite fellow leaders and professionals to share their perspectives. How has your organization adapted its dress code in response to these changing times? Do you perceive a return to formal attire as beneficial, or do you believe the relaxed norms are better suited to our current work environment? #Leadership #CorporateCulture #FutureOfWork #ExecutiveInsight #Professionalism

5 'Corporate' Christmas Party Tips for Leaders: 1. Dress Appropriately. Leading by example also requires you to dress for the occasion, especially when various activities are involved. For e.g. avoid wearing short or extremely revealing clothing, which exposes personal areas when naturally moving around at the event. By doing so, helps you refrain from looking tacky and seeking unnecessary attention. 2. Show Up! As a corporate leader it is of significant value for you to show up and participate in such event. This grants you various opportunities such as enjoying your staff while participating in games with them, study their behaviors outside the working environment, determine actual teambuilders and networkers, also trusting others to plan/prepare/host the event as their Chief Corporate Overseer. Hence, your presence matters. 3. Invite a Plus One. Having a date can help set clear boundaries between you and your corporate stakeholders (unless you are presently courting someone of interest in your organization in a respectable manner). Be reminded, as a leader you must ensure you protect your entire well-being, conduct, and actions. You are also to make certain your date is respectful and has a sense of decorum as a reflection of you. 4. Conduct Yourself in an Appropriate Manner. Yes, it's a party! That does not mean you can do 'whatever 'you want as a leader. For e.g. it is inappropriate for you to get drunk and high, sexually harass others, dance inappropriately, cause strife and altercations amongst your team members. Be reminded, business professionals are cordial and knows how to have fun in a delightful and pleasurable manner. 5. Leave Gracefully. As a leader you should never want to make your staff members feel uncomfortable by overstaying and basically micromanaging their every move. It's a party! Relax, enjoy the event for a moment and leave by thanking everyone for being a part of your team, also taking the time to celebrate the organization as a positive unit. Hence, you can always appoint someone to act on your behalf making certain everyone enjoys themselves but represents the company and its brand in their overall best interest. Executing such acts helps you to be viewed as a compassionate, exciting, and tremendous party leader! Motivational speaking, training, and consulting sessions are provided.

Celebrity Dreams and Office Cliques What Do They Have in Common? A few years back, I dreamt I was at a dental convention. The venue was a Vegas Casino. I was with a group of cliquish women who were on my team. They excluded me from their conversations and pretty much snubbed me. I stepped outside for some fresh air and to take a break from the negativity. While standing outside, William Shatner came outside and stood next to me with a cocktail in one hand and a napkin in the other. He started conversing with me telling me he was with a group of his old cronies to shoot the bull and would I like to join them. I mentioned that I was at a convention and was obligated to stay with my group. About that time one of the girls from my team came outside and stood there glaring at me. William looked at her and then looked at me. He then walked over to her, placed his napkin over her head, covered her face, and nonchalantly said, “Jealousy doesn’t look good on you.” and walked away. It was the most profound and funniest dream I’ve ever had. It got me thinking about workplace culture. While cliques can be a normal part of workplace culture, they can also cause problems if they become exclusive and make other employees feel left out. This can lead to a lack of motivation, decreased productivity, and a hostile work environment. Cliques can also stifle creativity and innovation because they tend to share a limited perspective AVOIDING CLIQUES IN THE WORKPLACE Navigating the intricate dynamics of workplace relationships can be challenging. To foster a more inclusive environment, consider these strategies: OPEN COMMUNICATION: Encourage open communication. Regular team meetings allow everyone to voice their ideas and concerns. When employees feel heard, they are less likely to isolate themselves. TEAM BUILDING: Promote team-building activities. Organize events that encourage collaboration among diverse groups. This can break down barriers and help individuals connect on a personal level. LEAD BY EXAMPLE: Lead by example. Managers and team leaders should model inclusive behavior. When they actively engage with all team members, it sets a precedent for others to follow. LANGUAGE: Be mindful of language. Avoid using jargon or inside jokes that may alienate some employees. Instead, embrace clear and inclusive communication styles that resonate with a broader audience. KUDOS: Recognize individual contributions. Acknowledge the efforts of all team members, not just those within a clique. This recognition fosters a sense of belonging and encourages collaboration rather than competition. By implementing these strategies, you can create a workplace that thrives on diversity and inclusivity, minimizing the negative impact of cliques. #workplaceculture #celebritydreams #weomedia #dentalmarketingexperts #dso

While 76% of hiring managers say they encourage employees to be their authentic selves at work, only 39% of employees feel their company supports it. How can employers fix this disconnect? Try creating communication and behavior guidelines that consider diverse perspectives. Importantly, all behavior or etiquette rules should be communicated to employees from the first day of work and modeled by leadership. #Authenticity #WorkplaceEtiquette #HumanResources https://lnkd.in/gFc4fuVf
