Top 5 Ways to Create A Positive Work Environment
4. Give recognition and reward for good work
“We always tend to pull up employees for not doing their jobs right or for being careless in their work. Shouldn’t we be pulling up employees for going out of their way to get something done?”, asked Simone to which we definitely had to agree. If someone at your workplace is staying back those extra hours simply to get the job done, make sure you reward them in the form of monetary recognition or an award. “Rewarding people for their hard work is a sure shot way of creating a positive workplace”, added Simone.
5. Listen to the woes of employees and colleagues
“Whether you are the manager, owner or an employee, it’s just not good enough only to dictate your orders, work on what you have to and leave for home when it is 5 pm. You must take time out to listen to the problems that other colleagues are facing in their day to day lives at work”, said Simone. We too think that this is a great way to create a positive workplace environment because lending an ear in times of distress can never go out of vogue.
