5 ways company culture creates better client outcomes

Having the right team and company culture is essential for better client outcomes. Whether it’s managing critical tasks like scheduling, billing, or client communications, a dependable and engaged team can make all the difference for your customers.

But how do you ensure that the people you rely on consistently deliver exceptional results? 🤔

At Outsourcing Angel, we’ve found that the secret lies in our company culture! 😍

By investing in our team’s growth and well-being, we’ve created an environment where our virtual assistants and admin staff aren’t just completing tasks day by day. They’re proactively helping our clients scale and succeed!

Key takeaways:

1. We organise meaningful team meet-ups

A strong, connected team delivers better results. That’s just a fact!

That’s why we prioritise activities like team retreats to build loyalty, motivation, and a sense of purpose among our virtual assistants and internal staff.

Our recent staff retreat is a perfect example. Over four days, we brought our team together for strategic planning sessions, exciting activities like canyoneering, and plenty of opportunities to bond and recharge.

These experiences aren’t just about fun, either. It also helps create a supportive environment where our staff feels valued and inspired to give their best.

This is why our average staff tenure is 5 years!

For our 80+ virtual assistants all over the Philippines, we also sponsor in-person meet-ups for them to connect, collaborate, and build stronger relationships with their peers.

These meet-ups provide a valuable opportunity for our VAs to share experiences, learn from one another, and feel more connected to their community, fostering a sense of belonging that translates into better engagement and commitment to their work.

💡 What does this mean for you?

For business owners like you, the impact is clear. VAs who are deeply engaged and committed to their roles stay with us for the long term. This means you benefit from consistent support, minimal disruptions, and a VA who truly understands your business over time 💗

2. We promote innovation and learning through free workshops

At Outsourcing Angel, we believe that empowering our Filipino virtual assistants with the right mindset and skills is key to delivering exceptional results for our clients. That’s why we offer free in-house workshops designed to help our VAs grow professionally and think creatively.

These workshops focus on everything from improving technical skills to fostering critical thinking and innovation.

One of our core values, Innovation, is deeply ingrained in these sessions, encouraging our VAs to embrace new ideas and take ownership of their roles.

Another unique part of our company culture is our rule to “seek forgiveness, not permission.”

This empowers our team to act confidently and decisively in their tasks, without being bogged down by unnecessary delays. They are encouraged to take the initiative, make decisions, and propose improvements that can streamline processes or solve problems for our clients 💯

💡 What does this mean for you?

For business owners, this means working with a VA who doesn’t just follow instructions but proactively finds ways to make your business run more efficiently.

So whether it’s optimising your systems, addressing challenges, or presenting innovative solutions, our VAs are equipped to add real value to your operations!

3. We provide channels for collaboration

We recognise that no single person has all the answers—which is why we emphasise the power of collaboration.

While each of our virtual assistants is highly skilled in their specific role, we’ve built a culture that encourages them to tap into the collective expertise of their peers.

Through learning channels in our Google Chats, our VAs learn from one another’s unique strengths and experiences.

For example, a VA specialising in administrative tasks might share insights with the group, sparking creative approaches for other VAs. This cross-functional collaboration ensures that each VA can bring a broader perspective to their work.

💡 What does this mean for you?

You’re not just hiring one VA from Outsourcing Angel—you’re gaining the collective expertise and creativity of a connected, collaborative team.

Our culture ensures that your VA is backed by a network of resources to deliver exceptional results, whether your needs are administrative, marketing-focused, or operational.

4. We prioritise security and professionalism

We understand that security and professionalism are non-negotiable for entrepreneurs. Whether it’s managing sensitive data or representing your business to customers, our VAs are managed to uphold the highest standards of integrity and responsibility.

This commitment starts with our company value of Integrity and is reinforced through ongoing security measures. These ensure that our VAs are not only skilled but also aligned with the values that matter most to your business.

💡 What does this mean for you?

For industries like healthcare or finance—where data security is critical—you can trust that your VA is equipped to handle information with the utmost care.

Our team understands the importance of confidentiality and compliance, and we take extra steps to ensure all security protocols are met.

5. We support well-being to avoid burnout

We’ve implemented initiatives to promote work-life balance and ensure our staff and virtual assistants are happy, healthy, and focused.

One of the ways we support our admin staff is by providing a mandatory rostered day off (RDO) each month. This dedicated time allows them to rest, recharge, and focus on their personal well-being without worrying about work.

Additionally, we provide an annual health card to all our team members in the Philippines, giving them access to essential healthcare services and peace of mind about their health.

By investing in our VAs’ physical and mental health, we create a sustainable and supportive work environment that ensures they remain reliable, dedicated partners in your business success.

💡 What does this mean for you?

This emphasis on well-being means you’re supported by a VA who is not only skilled and professional but also energised and engaged in their work! 💪

A healthier, more balanced team translates into better attention to detail, higher productivity, and fewer disruptions caused by stress or burnout.
