Friday ...........yay yay yay...:)
did you hear that bubbly sound ..sunayna ?? l :) l
some of the things that could be done is .....
whoever is feeling grumpy....
> put a smiley on his/her desk
> tell him/her a joke
> ask him/her to tell a joke
> since you cannot have laughter group in the office...atleast
have your coffee/tea in a group together - the team that
eats/drinks together stays together. like a familie....
Being together brings transparency and eliminates misgivings,
sullenness, untoward gossip. Talk something other than work.
Everybody could take a turn at something humorous.
> celebrate birthdays, successes and other small events together. Being
together takes out the loneliness from peoples lives.
Being together fosters a a sense of joy and life within the company.
Otherwise people will be scheming to leave for fatter pay cheques and
better ambience/environment, b'coz please remember...in employee
surveys ' ambience ' / ' environment ' is one those factors which is given
due attention by a major %age of employees.
> start a topic and invite ideas, thoughts, e.t.c. get people involved.
that will bring the shy people to the forefront.
> and for godsake .....never ever send forwards using company email.
company email is strictly for business purpose. please encourage this
thought. if at all anyone wishes to send forwards....use personal
email - and send it across to everybody in your group - not singling out
a few individuals.
> work is afterall ' plug n play'. 'play' means work n vice versa. that brings
us to realise how serious is the business of staying fun, fit, and sporty.
not only professionally but also personally.
Sunayna, this is a very interesting topic and discussion that you have brought on this forum....thank you for giving me a chance to bring forth my views.
Have a great fun filled day.
Cheers !
