As Winter roles around for 2021 many workplaces are confronted with the seasonal change that can so often threaten happiness, engagement and productivity within the workplace, aka… the “winter blues.”
A proactive employer with a people first culture will take the necessary steps to relieve the winter blues by considering environmental elements like encouraging exercise, getting employees to prioritise a daily dose of sunshine and making the office a comfortable and safe environment for everyone to enjoy… More on Tips to a healthy workplace culture during winter here.
Another way to address these issues each winter is to do something out of the ordinary, something healthy and active, and something fun as a work team like a team building activity. A well planned and executed team building programme will not only lift the energy of your team to fight those winter blues but allow individuals to experience each other outside of their normal work environment. Your staff will get to appreciate everyone for who they are, not what position they hold. Team building activities can also be fun and creative ways to develop ideas or strategies for the business.
Unfortunately, we cannot always control the weather and the Winter months often force many well intended businesses to cancel their team building fun. Well, we are here to save the season as we showcase our top 6 indoor team building events that will ensure your business is understanding, appreciating, developing and maximising their people to lead to a productive, efficient, motivated and happy workplace culture…. What more could you ask for!
