I’m trying to convince my staff and co-workers of the importance of work/life balance, especially in regards to taking their vacation time regularly and using sick days appropriately. As a wise boss of mine once said, “they’re not benefits if you don’t use them.”
Keeping a good attitude.
There are often times in every company when rumors of layoffs are going around, or deadlines are not going to be met, or a long time team member has decided to part ways.
I’ve often found that keeping a good attitude around the office regardless of the circumstances helps keep morale a little bit higher.
I am entering to win the book. I am surrounded by negative and low morale people. They all walk around and complain about management and all the things that are wrong but not a singel one of them will lift a finger to help themselves, help eachother, or help our customers. Sometimes I feel drained of energy trying to keep positive and motivate others.
