Helping Employees to be Hopeful & Healthy
After the tough winter months, made even tougher by the current lockdown, springtime always gives reason to be hopeful. As leaders, we can reach out to employees, encouraging them to be hopeful and to take good care of themselves. Here are four ways to help you to give employees real hope as the daffs burst into bloom and the days lengthen.
Wellness
Never has it been more important to look after our physical and mental wellbeing. That’s tough when we’re feeling emotionally drained and pulled in all directions. Sometimes we respond best when we receive a kickstart, something to motivate us to look after ourselves. Sending a
wellness pack to employees in conjunction with launching a company walking challenge can help provide motivation.
Celebrations
As Spring leaps forward let’s find some natural reasons to celebrate life. Let’s look to organise fun events, like online coffee mornings for company-wide teams. Let’s also make the effort to celebrate
work anniversaries, birthdays, retirements, and the birth of a colleague’s child. These moments can be too easily overlooked and forgotten when so many of us are working remotely.
Kindness
Treating people with
kindness can be an antidote to toxic workplaces and a catalyst for positive change. Let kindness and kind actions become what we expect from one another. These expectations can be the green shoots of a healthier culture which creates a win-win work scenario as happier people building a happier company with happier customers.
Gratitude
For those involved in organisational leadership, developing and implementing
gratitude strategies can deliver a competitive edge in the ever-changing work environment. Gratitude can be both a tool and a catalyst when building a more healthy and positive workplace culture. A simple way to expressing gratitude or appreciation is by sending employees a
tailored care pack.
Helping employees to be hopeful is a wonderful gift to give. Leaders that can demonstrate openness, optimism and share opportunities to be hopeful provides reassurance to employees, especially those working remotely. Supporting good health and a hopeful outlook not only support employee wellbeing but are also reciprocated with employee loyalty and a willingness to go above and beyond.
