Cut-Throat Company Culture
A thriving company corporate world doesn't require a cut-throat culture.
Research shows that a positive workplace not only benefits employees but significantly impacts the bottom line. High-pressure environments lead to hidden costs such as increased healthcare expenses and disengagement.
“Disengaged workers had 37% higher absenteeism, 49% more accidents, and 60% more errors and defects.”

The 'World's Best Boss'
Three Lessons on Team Building from the 'Worlds Best Boss', Michael Scott
1. Know Your Team
Lesson: Michael's often misguided attempts at team-building highlight the importance of truly knowing your team members. Understand their strengths, weaknesses, and individual personalities to create moment and activities that resonate with everyone.
2. Balance Fun and Productivity
Lesson: Michael's approach often emphasizes fun and camaraderie, but it's essential to strike a balance between enjoyment and productivity. Effective team building should contribute to team goals and collaboration while fostering a positive and enjoyable atmosphere.
3. Lead by Example
Lesson: Michael's willingness to participate in team building activities, even if they seem unconventional or uncomfortable, underscores the importance of leadership by example. When leaders actively engage in team building efforts, it sets a positive tone for the entire team.
COMMUNITY &(is) SUCCESS
Community and success in the workplace is not just about diverse skill sets; it's about the richness of perspectives that each team member brings to the table.
Every viewpoint is a valuable piece of the entire puzzle.
Embracing diverse perspectives fosters creativity, innovation, and a more inclusive work environment.

'Assigned Seating' at the next meeting.
We are creatures of habit. If you have the same meeting in the same location at the same time...they will sit in the same location.
Having ‘assigned seating’ at your meetings allows for fresh viewpoints, different interactions between colleagues and is a great way to rid the room of stagnant perspectives and shift thinking.
Buyer Beware... ‘Assigned Seating’ can also slightly patronize and/or disengage your team from the start, so get creative with the way you decide to seat your staff.
Looking for different/creative/sneaky ways to assign humans to seats in your next meeting?
