Culture Strategy
JKL Consulting offers a wide range of consultancy services to individuals and companies seeking to set up business. Specifically, the company offers advice on key business operations such as financial management and reporting, marketing, and strategic planning. Our clients benefit from our services in terms of reduced costs and higher profit margins. In so doing, JKL Consulting envisions businesses that are fully equipped to face the dynamic challenges of the 21st century and operate sustainably and profitably.
To realize its vision, JKL Consulting has outlined a set of values and beliefs that guide conduct in the workplace. The company’s core values are innovation, teamwork, equity, aggressiveness, fairness, and respect for individuals. supporting these values are the company’s belief in honest relationships and open communication, the invaluable role of a team spirit, humility and tolerance to diversity, and the importance of being adventurous as well as open-minded.
Several factors influence a company’s culture; leadership is one of them. With good leadership skills, managers influence organizational culture by setting realistic agenda, delegating responsibilities, providing employees with direction and purpose, and inspiring their employees to work towards the mission and vision (Indeed Editorial Team, 2021). More importantly, leaders influence organizational culture when they act as role models, exemplifying the values and beliefs they expect employees to uphold. Secondly, leaders who understand the importance of listening to their subordinates play a significant role in building a strong organizational culture. Listening makes employees feel valued, which motivates them to pursue the organization’s mission and goals. Lastly, transformational leaders who focus on empowering workers to become autonomous and creative also reinforce a strong company culture (Tsai, 2011). Such leadership skills help employees to become better at solving problems and handling complex issues.
The JKL Ventures organizational culture is shaped by, among other things, the values as well as beliefs that are held in the company. Whilst acknowledging that our company comprises people with diverse values together with beliefs and that none of these values/beliefs are correct or incorrect, JKL Ventures has identified a number of values and beliefs that it will give emphasis to. These include teamwork, fairness and respect for individuals, aggressiveness, and innovativeness.
At JKL Consulting, we want all employees-regardless of their position- to feel valued and members of one big family working towards a shared goal. We want our employees to feel at home, this is why we are working very hard to cultivate a family spirit. By fostering honest relationships supported by open communication, the company sends the message that at everyone’s voice matters at JKL Consulting. In addition, we want our employees to long for the next second, minute, and day at work, hence our focus on making JKL Consulting a fun-filled, learning environment that allows employees to be adventurous and act/think a little weird.
JKL Consulting strives to deliver the best service to clients. We are aware that we cannot possibly deliver this unless our contractors and suppliers are happy with the way we relate with them. We therefore strive to operate with utmost integrity and honesty. We have selected the best vendors in the market, and to ensure that our competitors do not snatch our vendors away from us, we are committed to treating our suppliers and contractors with a lot of respect and transparency. We offer to engage them in every strategic decision that we make; this way, our vendors will feel a sense of ownership in JKL Consulting.
