THE IMPORTANCE OF CULTURAL FIT IN BUILDING A STRONG TEAM!! 

Many employees are singulars who can only work and contribute as a solo entity. But, in reality in today’s complex and everchanging world of businesses the name single or a one-man show is no longer existent and is rapidly being replaced by a dynamic name termed as ‘Team’. Teams are formed in organizations to solidify the efforts of all singular members to transform the unified vision into a collective reality within a stipulated timeframe 

Why is cultural fit very important?

When singulars are replaced by plurality there will be a growing disarray of values, ideologies, practices, methods amongst the members. This results in complete chaos when there is no order in the system and approach. However, when there is a cultural fit imposed on the system the differences are removed and replaced by compatibility & consistency that leads to reliability which results in overall productivity & profitability for the organization. 

What can a culturally fit team contribute to the overall development?

Teams should not just exist for survival but rather drive the organization by thriving in dynamic business ecosystem. This thriving mode can be activated only when the team has a cultural fit and all the members are unified in their efforts and thoughts. Future ready companies are those which have such individuals as part of their team to become versatile and maintain a vantage point in dealing with uncertainties. A team which is culturally fit maintains status quo and goes on to become thought leaders in their domain by contributing largely to the company’s profits and progress.
