5 Ways To Get Your Team To Put Their Pants Back On

5 Ways To Get Your Team To Put Their Pants Back On

Happy FriYay!

Another Friday Fast 5 coming your way.?

With everyone slowly heading back into the office this month now seems like the perfect time to start rebuilding that tight-knit team culture that may have been lost after a couple of years jumping from in the office to WFH.?

So below are 5 things you can do to welcome your team back into the office to build a culture that will see them soar in the future.?

  1. Introduce connection to your meetings. This has been an absolute game changer in every team that I have worked with. It brings a personal element into the meeting and allows people’s walls to come down slowly. If you aren’t sure where to start I highly recommend these Ice Breaker Cards.?
  2. Get your team outside their comfort zone. Having a team building session to get your team connected early in the year is a great way to welcome them back to the office. You want to find an activity that’s a bit more outside the scope of the regular bowling/ pizza party. Something that challenges their comfort zone. This could be something like outdoor rock climbing, indoor laser tag, ice bath session, open-water kayaking or something else that encourages emotional triumph over what would be their usual comfort level. You’ll find the comradery afterwards is at an all time high!
  3. Make time for one on one goal setting. To better support your team throughout the year you need to know what they want to achieve. Do they want to work in management in the future? Do they want more flexible working arrangements? Do they want to start pursuing other specialty areas? Find out what their goals are for the year professionally and in their personal life so you can find the best ways to support them.?
  4. Maximise your meetings. Are Monday mornings already feeling like a drag to get through? The Monday morning meeting doesn’t need to be as feared as it once was. Thanks to my meeting maximiser. Comment “MAXIMISER” to grab a copy so that you and your team can make the most of your meetings.???
  5. Get your team involved in creating their job descriptions. I actually think job descriptions are outdated and constrict people from exploring what they can truly achieve in their role. So I use tours of duty that get updated anytime job requirements change. One way to do this can be to draft up what traits you think are needed for the role, and also what tasks you think will take up the majority of the work. Then you give this form to the employee and ask them to make any adjustments that they think would more accurately represent what they do, as well as any other extras that they would like to include more of in their role. This allows people to take ownership of their role and what tasks they commit to doing. Watch the change in enthusiasm when you introduce a practice like this!

Let’s crush this year!
