Creative way to re-energize your Company
Posted by: | CommentsOne of the best ways to re-engage your leadership with your employees is to have a job swap week (or even a day) Put all the names of employees in a random drawing pool and for one week the name you pick is the job you do from the CEO to the receptionist to the janitor.
Re-energizing your base and getting everyone out of their comfort zone is sure to establish the respectability of all the individual roles in a company and bring your entire team back together. These are different times with different circumstances and ego’s have gotten in the way. There are many issues ahead for all of us, personally, professionally and with the companies we like to buy from. We need to come together and honor and respect each other and our positions and roles and this is a cost effective way to do an in-house team building when the old “hunting trip” is no longer responsible spending.
It is time to know the names of the people you work with, make a point to get to meet someone new at work and take an interest in what they do and who they are. If you work for a smaller company expand that to people who work nearby. If you don’t work at a company get to know a new neighbor or the grocery boy’s name. By connecting with your fellow employees and respecting their work you will have a stronger conviction for who your representing and what your selling.
We are going to have to pull together as a community and support each other at the companies that we run. Building appreciation for the responsibilites of those around you makes the entire organization stronger.
Are you looking in the rear view mirror?
Posted by: | CommentsOr are you looking ahead? It is time to focus on what is in front of you and stop obsessing on what is behind you. If you are holding a grudge and full of resentment you are living in fear and focussed on the past. Be done with it already if your tired of the drama that happened then I am sure those around you are as well.
If you have a need to tell stories over and over again and create new audiences for your old stuff you are really wasting time. There is no moment like the present to get into the solution and be forward thinking. We have to learn and process our experiences so that the lessons are learned, not repeated and we encounter similar issues in the future with boundaries and sanity.
I have consulted with litigation participants who were intent of not letting go of the fight until they were broke and convinced them that letting it go was winning and they moved on to greater successes. As long as they held on to the baggage they had no room to let in the positive energy to grab even better opportunities. It is not always important to be right or to win an argument sometimes its just as important or more so to end it.
We can look at what is behind us easier than we can look into the future, but the future can be predictable most of the time. I have proven that over and over again. Any situation is either an absolute or has a measure of probability it really just is a bunch of calculations and moves which determine our destiny.
Throw out your rear view mirror of life and file the memories away and use those experiences to help yourself and others and move towards the brighter future.
Improve your mood with your favorite music
Posted by: | CommentsFeeling down or just lagging in energy? Put on your favorite music and get your groove back. I have watched many clients see an increase in productivity in their life and those around them with just a moment of uplifting music in the morning and the afternoon and a calmer sleep with a little relaxing music before bed.
You will be amazed and how much easier it is to get the kids out of bed and motivated for school, to get through a task and to re-energize your day and improve your office staff’s productivity when you play some great music.
There is all kinds of music and different music motivates or de-motivates people differently so a song that works for one may not work for another but its worth a try and turning off the TV and the over played news debates on negative views of our society and economy is not helping anyone.
I say its time to turn off the TV and turn on the music.
