Best place to work or "kind" place to work?


ARK is a new brand of clothes made in Ireland. It sells shirts for men and women. The name means: Acts of Random Kindness and the idea behind that is "a clothing line with a purpose other than profits". So every time you wear an ARK you should make and act of kindness - and the world will be a better place. It´s viral and the message is great!

I am very interested to discover how the clothes are made. Maybe this ARK spirit starts inside the factory with the employees. Maybe with the suppliers too?
Can you imagine such a pleasant place to work? An internal ARK spirit doing clothes full of good vibrations and energy?
What kind of words are being used in the face to face everyday conversations at ARKs factory?

To rebuild trust for example, companies, gevernment and people (employees also!) should talk. That´s what I believe: corporate communications don´t start with nice bulletins or expensive videos and folders. It starts with dialogue. So, Gary Grates wrote about it too. And there is a specific part of his text that I want to publish here. It´s about listening, a basical part of a conversation: Listen: The first step is listening. It's an old adage, but there ...
