Are Good Company Cultures an Economic Moat? With Jessica Ablamsky

Can a company's culture be an economic moat, or a sustainable competitive advantage? A recent Gallup poll suggests that a whopping 85% of workers are unhappy at work, leaving only a measly 15% of employees who are engaged with their employer. This directly contributes to high employee churn, leading to high employee search and training costs for most companies. If a company can find a way to keep employees happy, it will not only avoid these costs but have a highly knowledgeable and engaged worker base.

This is why Jessica Ablamsky emphatically believes a good company culture can prove to be a decided competitive advantage. A marketing writer and journalist in the San Francisco Bay Area, Ablamsky now spends her time consulting for some of the world's most innovative companies, ranging from small startups to global tech giants including companies such as Adobe and Oracle, with an expertise in branding through storytelling.

In an exclusive interview with 7investing, Ablamsky shares her research on company cultures, why the salary and compensation workers receive is only a part of the equation, and what makes for a good and bad culture in the workplace. Of course, the conversation wouldn't be complete if we didn't also discuss what a company's culture means for investors and different ways to investigate what a company's real culture might be like.

Ablamsky is also an accomplished investor and doesn't leave before explaining what her investment philosophy and process looks like and discussing a few of her favorite current ideas.
