Keep Things Fun
What distinguished the fun work from the not-so-much?
I worked for and with people who were engaged; they cared about the company and understood how they could contribute to its success.
People cared about each other; it’s unrealistic to expect that everyone in a company will be friends, but demonstrated compassion makes an enormous difference.
Fun work environments were safe work environments; people felt safe to speak up and to both voice and try new ideas.
We felt heard. Our opinions were solicited and acknowledged.
We were proud of our success and our ability to function as a high-performing team.
Laughter; while serious about our work, people felt comfortable cracking jokes and having fun together.
Create a Safe Environment
The perceived lack of safety in an organization will certainly give you a calm, quiet work environment.
What it will not give you is a high performing team.
