5 revolutionary ways to improve your workplace culture

A great culture attracts people to your organization—both customers and employees. It helps employees thrive. It empowers them to do great work. It creates a place of innovation and collaboration. A positive culture connects employees to purpose, accomplishment, and one another.

Create a thriving team culture with years of service awards: A guide for leaders

It’s that simple. Of all the experiences a person has at work, interactions with leaders have a disproportionate impact on how someone feels about their job, for better or worse. Peak experiences at work—those emotional highs that help people bond with the organization— are created by savvy leaders who know how to encourage, mentor, and motivate others.

Strong leaders know how to shape positive experiences that connect employees to purpose, accomplishment, and one another.

But such leadership skills need to be learned. Not every employee who is promoted to a management position has the experience or know-how to motivate and inspire people through great employee experiences. Leaders must be taught specific skills to move from being producers of great work themselves to influencing the great work of others instead. Employee recognition, including the skillful presentation of years of service awards, is an easy way for leaders to create memorable experiences that inspire greatness.

The Business Value of Red Hat Solutions and Cost Relationship to Unpaid Alternatives

Open source software (OSS) has long held the allure of being available for free use in the form of community-supported projects, in addition to being available in commercially packaged and supported versions that are targeted at business users. That allure of free software has carried with it the belief that by avoiding subscription fees, customers can save money in the long term. Numerous IDC Business Value research studies have found that higher operational costs associated with self-supporting community-based infrastructure software far outstrips the cost of commercial subscription support, when that software is used in a mission-important or mission-critical capacity.
