For people with families, that will often be flexibility around their kids. For others, it might be about having the time to exercise to achieve fitness goals, flexibility around a study schedule to earn a new qualification, the ability to work at home to see a new puppy settled in.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A dozen people may give a dozen different responses, but most can be sorted into one of a few buckets \u2013 each and every one of the examples above is related to flexibility. Whatever your employees\u2019 goals, they should be empowered to be transparent about what\u2019s important to their well being. Workplace culture is everyone\u2019s business \u2013 each person is a steward of that culture. It isn\u2019t owned by HR. So invite everyone to the table.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;69dd28d992016&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"69dd28d992016\" class=\"wp-block-image wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/10\/edweena_stratton_kids_day_science_table.jpg?strip=all&#038;quality=95\" alt=\"Kids Day Science Table\"\/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"our-values\">Our values<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Bring Your Kids to Work Day at Salesforce is also a wonderful opportunity to see our core values at play. No two families are alike but every family \u2013 no matter how it\u2019s made up and what it looks like \u2013 is equally treasured, and every member of the Ohana trusts in that. This respect for diversity feeds into our customer care. And the challenges associated with balancing our lives and making decisions about what to prioritise helps drive innovative ways to meet the same challenges faced by our customers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bring Your Kids to Work Day is so much more than a few activities, one day a year. It is a demonstration that&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/2017\/03\/the-power-of-being-intentional-about-culture.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">our Ohana doesn\u2019t begin and end at the front door to the office<\/a>&nbsp;but embraces every aspect of our lives. It is a crazy, fun, chaotic, inspiring, moving and hilarious day that injects the office with the unique energy that kids (and a ball pit, face-painting and slime-making!) generate.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And it is a day of pride all round \u2013 in our workplace, in our children, and from our children in us. We get to be their biggest superheroes in the best playground. And the impact of that lasts much longer than a few hours.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Want to learn more about how to create the sort of workplace that wins awards for its culture?
