Workplace Culture Established by the Leaders Not the Employees

Workplace culture is an important factor in securing and attracting new talent to any company. Recruiting agencies make this process easier by testing for cultural fit.

Platinum Recruiting, a premium recruiting agency based out of Kelowna, BC, uses a series of tools designed to perfectly connect employers with the right employees for the job.

Using a 5-stage screening process, Platinum Recruiting utilizes a full range of testing to assist in confirming skill levels of potential new hires and/ or existing staff.

This is an important step for any company looking to not only find the best employees, but find the best fit for the company’s culture. But culture isn’t established by the employees, it’s created by the leaders.

“Well, I think in any culture, whether it’s a family, a business, it doesn’t matter, tone comes from the top,” stated by Debra Hewson, CEO of Odlum Brown Ltd, an investment company located in BC. “. . . I’m a big believer in the golden rule and treat those the way you would expect to be treated. That means respectfully being a good listener, trying to find a common path.”

Platinum Recruiting has been placing candidates in the Okanagan for over 20 years and they understand that every company develops and nurtures a different sense of culture, and it’s that cultural piece that has become more and more important in the workplace, especially when it comes to not only recruiting but also attracting new talent.

“. . . it’s about kind of saying these are the non-negotiables and the non-negotiables are respectful behavior, listening to what other people have to say, trying to find a consensus and understanding that we’re better as a group than we are as individuals. If we can get that right, then we’ll be very successful,” stated Hewson in a recent interview.

Through testing and screening through an agency like Platinum Recruiting it helps guarantee that employees aren’t just being hired to match the skillset of the position, but they’re also being hired to fit the established culture of the company.
