Company Culture: Why is it important?

Why is Company Culture Important?

Having a strong company culture presence in a business is a fundamental piece in making sure a healthy environment is being created. The shift in our everyday activities changed due to COVID-19.  The normalcy of working from home has created different challenges to arise in businesses. Companies and businesses, small and big,  have created virtual events to help employees still feel as engaged in the company culture as they were before the pandemic. Blu has been successful in maintaining its relationships with employees and clients. Services that are high in demand and remain consistent are janitorial cleaning services, office cleanings, and specialty services. (e.g. deep cleaning COVID disinfecting). We are sharing what our company culture was like before COVID and how it is now, nine months later. We will also be sharing why it is crucial to have a strong presence of company culture in your work environment,  whether you are in the office or at home.

You can find a lot about the culture a company has through its website and social media. This may seem small, but it is very significant to how engaged employees are engaging within the company. Today, social media plays a major role in delivering news. Make your platforms a source of information on what is happening in and out of the company. 

Company Culture at Blu

At Blu, we have given our employees a time to take a break from the deep cleanings, janitorial services, and office cleaning and have incorporated “Wellness Wednesdays”.  We have included different 10-20 minute activities where our employees can focus on themselves ( e.g. mediation and stretches)  at least once a week. Small company exercises and activities are proven to have employees engage and enjoy their job more than those who do not. A key thing to note about company culture is that it is made up from attitudes, ideas, inspirations, community and attributes and all contribute to making the work dynamic enjoyable. 

What makes your company different from others?

Every company has its core values. core values must mirror what a company’s purpose is that will distinguish them from the rest of the pack of the industry. At Blu Commercial Cleaning, we believe in creating content that will engage, teach, and build committed social communities that are looking at Blu to be a resource and influencer in the cleaning industry. We take this and incorporate it into our work in and out of the office. Our company has a total of 30 employees. It is a tight-knit community that has each other’s backs with whatever is needed. Our specialty services and residential services teams are divided based on where they perform best. We then divide and conquer. It is important to know the strengths and weaknesses of your company. This will make sure there is a clear understanding of what can be done for a company to continue exemplifying its best qualities while continuing to evolve and grow.
