Question

You run a small app development company that has 9 employees: 3 of whom work in the office and the others work remotely but come to the office for quarterly meetings and team building activities. All 9 of your employees have been with you since day one and all are very satisfied with their job and the organization. You’re organizational culture is a relaxed one, where people have freedom to set their own hours, learn on the job, and always stretch their abilities. You think of your staff as your family. Due to rapid growth you are thinking about hiring 3 employees in Mumbai, India. If you do this, how could you work to export your organizational culture in a way that those employees have the same experience as your employees in the U.S.?

Explanation / Answer

To export this organisational culture of freedom to their own hours, learn on the job, stretching their abilities, and the feeling of being a family giving a satisfying work culture as in the U.S an be exported to those employees who are working in Mumbai India by taking different steps such as making sure to have small talks with the employees abroad. We can do video calls to those employees every now and then, specially when all the employees come to office to make them feel more included. Having one to one conversation over phone or video would also make the remote employees feel more included like a family as the U.S workers do. There is a time zone difference too, so if that could be accommodated and their convince would also be consider then they would feel valued. Sending small token of appreciation too would make them feel included and if possible they can be given opportunity to come to U.S and meet with the employer in person or the employer can go to India to meet them in person atleast once or twice.
