What Leni Rivera can say in an interview about
Virtual Company Culture:

A company’s culture is based on the interactions that employees have with each other, with their managers, company leaders, and with their customers. It also expresses the values that companies consider important within these relationships. This is why corporate cultures are unique to each organization. Here are some ideas to build company culture virtually:

    1. Know what’s important to your employees, and use that as a starting point. For example, is a large part of your workforce made up of parents? If so, build up this community – create virtual events that involve family participation, include a play zone in corporate offices for employees who need to come in for a meeting, or encourage parenting ERGs and events.
    2. Employ gaming techniques to encourage virtual employee interactions.
    3. Employ unorthodox mentorship programs, in which mentors help fellow employees with anything from cooking Indian cuisine and practicing mindfulness at work to caring for parents and the elderly or best practices for creating boundaries when working from home.  
    4. Put a block on every employee’s schedule (for example, every Wednesday at 1:00 pm) that will be dedicated to non-work essential gathering, and offer virtual programs for group meditation, religious recollection or prayer, parenting (or pet care) advice, or just 60 minutes of non-work group interactions.

In this new Work From Anywhere environment, these are just a few ways that companies can strengthen workplace relationships to build and enhance their corporate culture.
