Are you having a hard time handling your teams and keeping them on track? Kyle Probert and I can't emphasize enough the necessity for organizations and companies to focus on culture overhaul and how vital the care factor is that makes employees happier, productive and engaged.
Key points covered in this episode:
[00:03:55] The idea that the people should just turn up for work and grind is so outdated. We've evolved as humans, as business owners and as entrepreneurs. And yeah, happiness really is that key thing is keeping people functioning well. Removing the hurdles out of their way and just letting them get on and be successful. [00:04:18][22.8]
[00:05:49] Maintain that care factor so that your people adopt a culture of going out of their way to help each other. When they treat each other not just another person or a colleague but as friends, they are bound to help and make each other's life easier.
[00:11:36] Think about your third space. Work on lessening the stress and pressure because not every day is going to be rainbows and lollipops. Find ways to help your employees and your team cope and support them too so that they can be fully present in their families when they leave work.
[00:15:33] We can't expect our teams to be vulnerable with each other if we're not willing to be vulnerable ourselves. [00:15:38][5.0]
[00:20:52] As a leader, and maybe as a boss, we forget that our ego is our enemy.
[00:23:28] Creating ripples in the organizational chart. The network concept outweighs the old hierarchy structure that helps paint that picture of everyone working together. We talk about the circle and the ripple effect and how those ripples when they interact with each other, get bigger as well.
[00:30:01] Applying scrum meetings is the best practice by providing an open platform for the team to communicate with each other and ensure that all the information is available for everyone. If everyone shares what they're working on or where they get stuck, all the hurdles can be moved out of the way and success is made to happen.
[00:33:18] Figure out who's the ball holders and who clears the field to go where the team needs to go. And that again brings in that camaraderie, so if you think about the concept of friendship or mateship, it makes work smooth and effective.
[00:37:21] Happiness is the most fantastic hack to productivity and profitability. Starting meetings with breath-work or a gratitude session creates wonders on how the week will be productive.
[00:40:46] Nerf guns and office fun. Enjoying some lightheartedness at work is a virtue that every company should try to embody. We talk about how nerf guns can foster play as productivity for adult learners and workers.
