Make a work environment so positive that your staff want to visit and show off their workplace on their days off.

BBC: "we're on YOUR side!"
BBC strongly objects to treatment of our staff in this way. Despite making clear to soldiers they were working for BBC, the behaviour they were subjected to is wholly unacceptable. We have registered complaint with the Israeli military but are yet to receive response.
