7 Ways To Create A Friendly Work Environment (idris Olatunde Oluwaseyi) by Propertyeighty: 2:40pm On Jun 20, 2017 |
Here are seven tips that will help develop great relationships at work. 1. Develop a positive attitude. When you own your own company, your co-workers and employees look to you to set the tone for the business and the office environment. A positive attitude is key to an enjoyable, more comfortable workplace. A positive or negative attitude also spills over into how your customers perceive your business, which translates into their willingness to do business with you. They can tell when everything is clicking, and they can also tell when things are amiss. 2. Treat everyone with respect. Everyone you work with deserves respect in the workplace, even when you differ on opinions. Look at each and every person as a vital member of the team. Respect that they have different opinions and ways of looking at the world. This respect will go a long way in developing the trust and teamwork that will take your business to the top.

Encourage your co-workers to share their thoughts and be open to hearing them all the way through without interrupting or interjecting your own opinions. To foster an environment where everyone feels they have a voice, make your approach “yes, that’s a possibility” rather than “no, that would never work.”. 4. Connect on a personal level. Develop meaningful bonds with your fellow workers. Exchange ideas and personal opinions. Show your empathy and concern for their well being as people, as well as co-workers. Take time to learn about their families and their goals. When you show a genuine interest in others, you foster a happier workplace. 5. Develop relationships outside of work. Go to lunch with your co-workers or plan an off-site event like a bowling night or a day at the ballpark. Get to know each other outside of the office. You’ll be pleasantly surprised to learn more about what makes them tick and you’ll develop even stronger bonds when you discover you have shared interests.

Take on a charity campaign and encourage your co-workers to participate in fundraising events, a charity race or a Habitat for Humanity project. You will build trust and form a bond when you share common goals and activities for the good of others. Post regular reports around the office or in your newsletter. Recognize everyone for their hard work and dedication. 7. Say thank you. There are all sorts of ways to provide rewards, including praise, recognition, money, prizes, gift cards, celebratory meals, trophies and certificates of achievement. Be liberal with positive feedback and show gratitude when employees go above and beyond their normal duties and responsibilities. Everyone likes to feel valued and appreciated for what they do everyday. An attitude of gratitude goes a long way. Offer respect, kindness, openness, caring and trust and you will be sure to reap the returns many times over. Culled from https://www.entrepreneur.com 2 Likes |

Tried all these plus more and still got into trouble. From experience: 1. mind your business. 2. don't gossip about your boss to your colleagues. One day someone will definitely use an information gotten from you to score a cheap point for himself/herself (found that the hard way ). 3. don't get into 'personal stuff' at work. Stay professional. 4. always bear in mind that EVERYONE (and I mean it - EVERYONE) you work with is only out to protect their own interest first. When the chips are down, no one will take the fall for you. 5. developing relationships with your colleagues outside work might one day backfire in your face. If you are wise, you will notice that your colleagues also keep to themselves and socialise only when necessary. 6. "connect on a personal level"?. Well, watch it sha. 7. mind your business - Oh! sorry I forgot I mentioned it above . . . 5 Likes 1 Share |
