Focusing on culture and diversity to grow to 300 people - with Tamara Littleton
How do you grow to 300 people globally with a laser focus on people and culture?
Tamara Littleton is Executive Chair & Founder at Social Element. She started the agency as a remote-first business 22 years ago.
In this episode, Tamara shares how she:
Puts attracting and retaining brilliant talent at the top of their flywheel and as their key business objective
Used her corporate background to apply strategic thinking from day one and grow into a large business
Leads from the back to keep out of people’s way and allow them to take the business forward
Appointed external auditors to measure how well they’re doing for diversity and help them continuously improve
Rolled out DISC training across the business so everyone better understands each other, is more respectful and challenges ideas
Takes it as her personal responsibility to retain the culture so the team keeps turning up every day and doing a great job
Tamara openly shares her 22-year journey from sole founder to handing over the running of the business and appointing two co-CEOs.
