Traditionally we operate in the blue collar industry. These individuals are not tech savvy. Everyone has a smart phone today that they keep in their back pocket and so the whole meaning, the whole culture around safety and quality is changing and shifting because we are giving workers out there the capability of actually changing the current process. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">Safety and quality is not cool, it\u2019s not sexy. However through innovative technology we are refroming how people think about safety and quality which is really important. So for us, internally, recognising that is one of the biggest things and biggest things and biggest reasons why people come to work at safety culture today. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">Internally at safety culture we have two different platforms that we use for recognition. One is called Lattice. Lattice is something you use for more significant feedback. So in two or three paragraphs you can say to someone &#8211; Great job, I saw you hit your monthly goals &#8211; keep it up! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">The second tool we use is called Slack. Slack is our instant communication tool. This is for the off-the-cuff recognition. These are the two tools that we are taking for recognition. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><b>Allan: How do you keep the great culture as you start to scale and ramp up the organisation?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><b>Nick<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: In the early days people joined because they really buy into the mission of safety culture. As I said before, to most people its not cool and not sexy but we\u2019re solving a really important problem. We\u2019ve now raised $90M in venture capital. The VC is here in Australia and also in the United States and United Kingdom. It\u2019s a lot of money and now the brand is starting to get out there in the market. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">The biggest thing we need to focus on as we scale is culture. The pinnacle as to why we come to work every day. The biggest investment we have made is into our onboarding bootcamp. There\u2019s about 15-20 people that start at safety culture every month. Usually four or five of these are coming from our US and UK office so we are flying them out to Sydney for a week. We\u2019re covering their flights, accom and stuff in between. A HUGE investment for a start-up business. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">We\u2019ve gone from 75 to 220 employees in about the last 15-16 months alone. So bringing these individuals to Sydney allows us to scale our culture as well. This intensive week of bootcamp isn\u2019t about their functional role. It\u2019s about why this company started 7.5 years ago. A message from our founder. It\u2019s about going through the product and feeling the pain points. So even if you are working the HR team where I sit, you are still going in there feeling the product and hearing the pain from our customers as you go through this week at safety bootcamp. It\u2019s a really really big investment for us but culture is so important.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">At the end of that week, everyone really is embedded in why we come to work every day. If you\u2019re hearing stories about one of our customers and how they have experienced a death from an individual in their team, it really starts to sink home as to why this is so important. The mission, the culture, it starts coming together. This bootcamp gives us the best chance of scaling that as we continue to double in size again in the next twelve months or so. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><b>Allan: Tips for implementing measures to improve culture and goal setting<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><b>Nick<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: For corporates or start-ups alone, I\u2019d say the biggest mistake we make it &#8211; and I\u2019ve made this mistake as well &#8211; is we set this amazing 3 yr vision. We\u2019re going to do this. We\u2019re going to take over the world is some great way, which is awesome. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">Then we go and set a 12 month goal as a business. We need to do X 12 months from now. This is awesome as well but we forget is that we\u2019re coming to work every single day. We\u2019re waking up every morning and coming to work and this big 12 month goal is 11 or 12 months away. It really crushes the motivation factor that maybe you\u2019re not tracking too well against that goal. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">So the biggest thing we\u2019ve learnt, the biggest piece of advice I have gotten, is to break it down. So most companies today revert to even having quarterly goals. So how do those quarterly goals track to the 12 months goals of the business. This is great but you can break it down even further! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">Each week when you leave on a Friday or one of your team members leave on a Friday, why are you going to feel good about that. What have you done that has you driving home or sitting on the train as you go home on a Friday afternoon, going \u201cThat was an awesome week\u201d. It\u2019s contributed towards those quarterly goals, which will contribute towards the annual goals but how do I feel good this week? That\u2019s also super important! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><b>Allan: If there was one tip you could give to make sure teams are high-performing, what would it be? <\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><b>Nick<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: So probably breaking down that previous answer even more so. The analogy that we use at safety culture &#8211; and something that I learnt when I worked at spotify when i worked there a few years ago over in Sweden. It was that your weekly one to ones are super important. The conversation you have between yourself and your manager and your leader. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">The analogy is something that we have taken from the sport environment. Is everyone familiar with Roger Federer? The champion tennis player. So Roger Federer, over the course of a year, plays 2 or 3 or 4 games every single week. He\u2019s in tournaments all around the world. It\u2019s really easy for Roger to understand what he did and didn\u2019t do well. Usually every day and every two days. We need to have that same analogy when we come to work. Every day in our environment. That sports mindset, that athletes mindset. Where it\u2019s you know when you win, you know when you lose. You can self critique every day. What did I do well today, how did I win? What did I lose at today? What do I need to get better at tomorrow and who can help me with that?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">It brings a certain self-critiquing component as an individual into a team. Over those sports analogies it breaks a bit of an intense environment. So if you want to build this intensity into your high-performing teams, it\u2019s great&#8230;but it is intense. So you need to have downtime. You can\u2019t go 12 months with this kind of mindset. You can go for a few weeks and then you need to have some sort of mechanism to just stop, refresh and have a day off the tools. Let\u2019s go do some planning. Let\u2019s go do a team building exercise. Something that allows you to have that downtime. Just refresh, gather your thoughts, think about the strategy or the planning and go again. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">It\u2019s things like Blys, what you guys are doing, that is really important. If Blys comes into the workplace every month or second month or 3rd month and your team just has a session together just to try to break the mold then that&#8217;s fantastic. Every member of my team has a subscription to Headspace, the meditation ap. \u00a0So it\u2019s important that they understand that you need to have some downtime. You need to gather your thoughts. Find your little way of doing that! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">Last Thursday, my team had a day off-site. We went into the city, went into a wework office and we just spoke about the 12 month goals and how we were going to get there. It was think big. I didn\u2019t want the team to think about what we are doing already. That wasn&#8217;t going to get us there. That\u2019s what we do every single day. I said there were no bars with how big their thinking was. They could go crazy with some of the stuff we wanted to try. No budget constraints, no resource constraints and the creative thinking really came out last Thursday. At the end of the day the team were just kind of refreshed and thought &#8211; that\u2019s awesome &#8211; look at all this stuff we could do.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Allan_Manuel_%E2%80%93_High_Performing_Teams_Script\"><\/span>Allan Manuel &#8211; High Performing Teams\u00a0Script<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">&#8220;So I want to kick things off with Maslow\u2019s Hierarchy. Can I get a show of hands who has heard of this before?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">For those who haven\u2019t, it\u2019s really important, it\u2019s a theory that categorises our wants and needs into 5 layers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">So starting off at the base here, are our core base needs &#8211; hunger, food, shelter<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">As we work our way to safety, love, belonging, self-actualisation, they become more abstract and higher-level.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #808080;\"> It\u2019s generally thought that you need your baser needs satisfied before you can focus on your higher level needs &#8211;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">For example if you\u2019re hungry you\u2019re not going to be thinking \u2018how is my self-esteem right now\u2019, or how can I be more self-actualised &#8211; which is a fancy word for \u2018living up to your potential<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Why this is relevant to building effective teams &#8211; Chip Conley has adapted this model to the team environment<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Chip Conley helped grow Airbnb since 2012, and has been fundamental in making them the behemoth that they are today<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">If you look at [Chip\u2019s] adaptation of Maslow\u2019s we can see at the base we have money (salary), in the middle, recognition and at the peak we have meaning<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Unfortunately too many companies focus on the base need (money). They don\u2019t spend enough time building recognition and meaning into their team.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Believe it or not but a lack of recognition is the number 1 reason why you lose good employees. It has nothing to do with salary<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">As we work our way higher to the pinnacle, we have meaning &#8211; this is the why. As much as we like to believe [we are logical], we are emotional creatures.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">As much as we think we are super logical, we need to work for a cause, this is why it\u2019s so crucial we provide our teams with meaning.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">It was Nietzsche who said, \u201cif you give a team a why, they will be able to bear almost any how\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">So it\u2019s crucial [for higher performing teams] companies focus on the middle and top level of the pyramid to drive great performance for their team<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Now I want you take you through one company that has absolutely nailed this pyramid. Hate him or love him, but Mark Zuckerberg has built one of the most effective teams of the 21st Century.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Facebook\u2019s missions, the pinnacle is super simple. Whether you agree with it not, is to bring the world closer together. Create a more open community. That\u2019s what [the team] is working toward.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #808080;\"> But what I want to focus on is how [Zuckerberg] has nailed that middle part of the pyramid, the recognition.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Aside from the public shoutouts Zuckerberg does, e.g. when he thanks a long-standing engineer &#8211; receiving 400,000 likes,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">You can also see how Zuckerberg ties the recognition into the meaning &#8211; so \u201cthanks for helping connect so many people\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">But what really stood out for me, was when Facebook were IPO\u2019ing, when they were going to list on the stock exchange<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Instead of Zuckerberg, Sheryl and the senior team flying out to the East Coast to ring the bell in New York he decided to stay with his team in LA<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Have the whole [IPO] broadcasted, so his whole team could soak up the limelight for this massive occasion, I think that would have sent ripples across the organisation<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">And it would have spurred the team to do bigger and greater things<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">So this is the particular human touch that Zuckerberg understands technology cannot provide<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">So I want you to think, how you can provide your team with greater recognition and great meaning to really drive that great performance from them?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Follow us on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/getblys\/?ref=br_rs\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/getblys\/\">Instagram<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/blys-on-demand-mobile-massage\/\">LinkedIn<\/a> for\u00a0more\u00a0updates and massage pop-ups!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221;][vc_column centered_text=&#8221;true&#8221; column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][vc_column_text]\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Are_You_Ready_For_Blys_Get_a_massage_today_Feel_better_tomorrow\"><\/span><strong>Are You Ready For Blys?<br \/>\nGet a massage today.
