Sustainable workplace: peer to peer recognition
Sustainable workplaces have a lot to do with a healthy company culture and embracing the right values goes hand in hand with longevity and so sustainability. One of the most important aspects of a healthy company culture - in my view - is peer to peer appreciation. It is not easy to nurture, as sometimes we can be competitive beings but if companies get it right, a real inclusive and team work environment can flourish.
