In this episode, Sophie discusses the benefits of implementing a coaching culture in the workplace with Victoria Usher, founder and CEO of GingerMay PR. Sophie and Victoria discuss how by integrating a coaching culture in an organisation empowers individuals to thrive and allows them to grow as people. Such a culture creates a positive and supportive work environment, leading to better outcomes for both employees and the organization.
Victoria takes great pride in allowing her employees to have freedom within boundaries but also sees her role within the company as an educator. As an advocate for sustainability, Victoria encourages and educates her staff about living sustainably whilst integrating it within the business. The company has provided several workshops about sustainability including topics such as cleaning products highlighting the some of the dangers commercial products have on not only the environment but to people’s health.
Finally, the discussion moves to the different colours of personality in the DiSC profile. The DISC profile is commonly used in organizational settings for team building, leadership development, and employee training. By understanding their own DISC style and the styles of others, individuals can improve communication and collaboration, manage conflicts more effectively, and increase overall productivity and performance. Victoria explains how important it is that a person’s colour matches their role within the workplace, allowing them to feel fulfilled and benefiting the output of the business.
