Why Your Team Needs a Heartbeat: The Importance of Organizational Health

Building strong organizations isn’t just about profits; it’s about the people who make it all happen! Today, we’re chatting with Faith Clarke, an expert in organizational health and teamwork, who’s got the inside scoop on how teamwork, inclusion, and purpose-driven leadership can really make or break a company. Faith shares her journey from engineering to becoming a powerhouse in helping businesses create diverse teams that not only thrive but also deliver social impact. We dive into the nitty-gritty of how organizational health is rooted in the well-being of individuals and the community, emphasizing that it's not just about the numbers but about nurturing a culture where everyone can flourish. So, grab your favorite snack and settle in as we explore how to build teams that are as strong as they are compassionate! In this episode of Becoming Bridge Builders, we unpack the treasure trove of insights shared by Faith Clarke, an expert in organizational health and teamwork. As we sat down with her, the conversation flowed like a smooth jazz melody, touching on the intricacies of fostering an inclusive work environment. Faith’s background is fascinating; she transitioned from dreams of medicine to engineering, and now, she’s shaping the future of organizations by focusing on their internal dynamics. One of the standout moments was her take on organizational health — she defines it not by metrics alone but by the people who make up the organization. Faith passionately argues that when we truly care for our teams, we see not just an uptick in morale but also in productivity and innovation. Throughout our discussion, we explore the concept of ‘team cognition’ and how it plays a crucial role in how teams operate, especially during times of change, like the pandemic. Faith’s research dives into how people come together, forming bonds akin to family, which is vital for collaboration. This episode isn’t just a talk about theory; it’s packed with actionable advice on how leaders can enhance their organizations by prioritizing trust, inclusion, and genuine connection among team members. If you’re looking to transform your workplace into a thriving community, this episode is your goldmine. Takeaways: Organizational health is about nurturing people, not just metrics; it's all about creating environments where individuals can thrive and connect meaningfully with each other. Inclusion is key: organizations need to design their onboarding processes to connect new members to the heart and mission of the team, ensuring they feel valued from the get-go. Effective teamwork is built on trust; if trust is compromised, even the best plans can fall apart, so investing in trust-building is essential for sustainable success. Leaders must treat themselves as the first priority; if they're not taking care of their own well-being, they can't expect their teams to thrive either. Building a culture of care means everyone in the organization, not just HR, should be involved in welcoming and supporting new team members to foster connection and engagement. True organizational change requires a commitment to nurturing the human element in work; when people feel valued, productivity and creativity naturally increase.

Bishop Kevin Foreman shares his journey from a troubled upbringing in Orange Mound to becoming a respected leader, highlighting the importance of making choices that break negative cycles. Forgiveness is crucial in the healing process; it’s not about the other person's actions but about freeing ourselves from the chains of anger and resentment. To break generational curses, we must first recognize what needs healing, making the decision to change and then actively work on our individual healing journey. The conversation stresses that pain often precedes purpose; embracing and interrogating our pain can reveal our true calling and help transform ourselves and our families. As spiritual leaders, it's essential to normalize pain and the healing process, allowing individuals the freedom to express their struggles and walk with them on their journey.
