How to Help A Company Reach Its Fullest Potential

According to start-up CEO David Hassell of 15Five, his company’s why is to create a space for people to be their best selves. This is certainly a far cry from the doldrums of many organizations that advocate conformity to a corporate ideal.

15Five draws a line in the proverbial sand and proclaims what they do:

We envision a world where every person has the opportunity be engaged in work that is meaningful to them, working alongside people they deeply trust and respect, building towards a common and inspiring vision, and where their work not only calls out their individual greatness, but together leads to creating a world-class, high performing company where everybody wins. At 15Five, we’re building that kind of company.

This is a company that understands the human-side of business.

In this episode of Work That Matters, David and I explore a variety of topics that call forth managers and employees to help the company reach its fullest potential. The nice thing about this battle cry is that David advocates such aspirations through people.
