When you work in human resources you are constantly trying to improve employee engagement. Here are some great ways to improve employee engagement and increase their moral!
1. Say please, thank you and my pleasure. It's the little
things that can boost moral. If you are asked to do something and you're
response is "My Pleasure" you are going to be remembered by the
higher ups. It starts with the bosses saying it first. Be enthusiastic and use
manners...it's catching.
2. Focus on making your employee happy! If you have happy
employees you have motivated employees. The happy employees want to go to work
and love it when they do. The stodgy offices of yesteryear are gone. Let's make
work fun and get things done! Music, a gym, bring your dog to work day are all
examples of ways you can be making them happy.
3. Profit Sharing is a powerful motivational tool. When the
employees have a stake in the company they are more likely to do their best.
After all, it's their company!
4. Do fun volunteer work together. If you have downtime try
to find volunteer work in the field you are in for the employees to do
together. They feel better about themselves and love that they are helping
others as well. What a great team building experience.
5. Give your employees a 15 minute huddle in the morning.
Gather around the water cooler and talk about the day you had yesterday.
Employees love it if they feel that you care what happens to them.
