Are you struggling to come up with effective check-in questions for your team meetings? It’s easy to end up defaulting to general questions, like, “How are things going?” But those will often lead to a vague response.
Inarguably, every workday deserves to have some added fun. After all, all work and no play makes for a very dull day! This is where office games come in.
Planning interactive discussions for you and your team members isn’t always easy, especially if you have bigger things on your plate to focus on. Thinking of creative conversation starters that will help lighten the mood and get everyone ready for a meeting may be the last thing on your mind as you put the finishing touches on your slide deck.
If you have never tried a company-wide scavenger hunt, you’re in for a treat. This is a fun and interactive way to improve connections in the workplace and provide your team with a way to unwind and relax after a long day of work.
Sometimes, all your team members need is an escape from the chaos of the workweek. One of the most popular ways to do that is with a virtual paint night (sometimes called paint nite). These are interactive experiences that put your team members’ creative skills to the test and allow them to relax with the people they collaborate with every day.
Looking for the best this-or-that questions? This-or-that is a fun and easy game you can play with friends, family, colleagues, or pretty much anyone! It makes a great icebreaker, and it can spark conversations, as well as let you learn more about your friends or colleagues.
As a leader at a virtual company, you’re probably always looking for new and innovative ways to engage with your employees. It’s certainly not easy keeping a remote team engaged. However, it’s important to try because employee engagement is essential to a thriving and enjoyable workplace.
From Halloween to Mardi Gras, there is always something to celebrate in the workplace. Celebrating is an integral part of a healthy and engaged workforce since it helps your team members engage on a deeper level and connect on something that isn’t work-related.
The unfortunate truth is we all get busy and start to forget just how important effective communication is in the workplace. Between completing project deadlines and attending meetings during a seemingly chaotic workweek, it’s important to remember we need to check in with employees to ensure everything is running as smoothly as we think it is.
Think back on all the places you have worked. As an employee, which one provided the best possible experience? If the reason you enjoyed working somewhere was because of your boss, it was most likely because they were great at communicating with you.
