A Christmas ‘Do Isn’t Culture

A Xmas 'Do isn't 'culture' ...

Many of us business owners are guilty of putting on a Christmas do once a year… and calling that 'job done' on the culture front. 😬

My experience is that the more you invest in your team, the more enjoyable your work environment becomes - and the higher the level of performance.

One thing we’ve found really effective is running a team day every 90 days.

It’s a chance to:

• get a fresh perspective

• take time out to think

• tackle some challenges together

• and enjoy each other’s company.
  ( and crucially - eat some great food - a non-negotiable!)
  

Some of the comments from our team day yesterday were:

👉 “I’m really excited about the vision and where we’re going. I can picture it really clearly.”
👉 “I valued taking thinking time - it’s been too long since I’ve done that properly.”
👉 “I’m feeling more confident... like I can just back myself.”

We’ve landed on a simple structure- it takes less than 5-hrs to run, and gets the balance of connection and performance about right.

If you want a copy of our Team Day structure, get in touch, with the subject line ‘AGENDA’ and I’ll send it your way!
