Small Giants companies share a commitment to six key qualities that make a business truly exceptional: purpose, leadership, culture, finance, relationships, and community. While each element is equally important, finance is often the most challenging aspect of building a sustainable, purpose-driven business.
The most successful leaders understand that the environments they create directly influence profitability. A culture defined by accountability, trust, and purposeful growth will have a loyal, engaged workforce and outperform its competitors. That’s why so many leaders have embraced financial transparency to strengthen the culture and improve financial performance.
It can feel risky to share the financial side of the business with employees — what if they don't understand the numbers? What if it distracts them from their day-to-day jobs? Instead, you’ll find that it creates a clear path to building a sustainable business that delivers on your promise to employees. Financial transparency is more than just sharing the numbers — it creates a culture where all employees feel and act like owners and are armed with the information they need to make the best decisions for the business.
