It’s no surprise that lockdown has affected people mentally as much as physically.  

Everyone on a personal level is trying to follow practices for mental well-being but on an organizational level, HRs, managers and team leaders are struggling to keep their employees focused on work. Working from home acts as an additional problem because most people live with their families. Companies thus are focusing on employee engagement and team building activities. But are these even helping? 

Let’s find out! 

How to leverage motivational talks into organizational values

Doing all our activities from one place has made life balanced for some but disrupted the same balance for many. We are going to talk about the effect of pandemic on corporates, their employees and how to fix that. 

This week we are discussing the effect of pandemic on corporates. Undoubtedly, the revenues and profits for most organizations have sunken drastically, this has been similar for all economies but a deeper problem being faced is the decreased employee productivity. As much as companies are trying to cut costs, they are ready to spend on their employees for not just organizational but also personal benefit of these stakeholders 

It’s believed that the real wealth of an organization is its people. 

So, we are talking about employee wellness today. Whenever HRs think of improving employee performance, employee engagement is the answer. But this term in itself is very diverse so we are here to tell you what is the best thing to go for. TeamWork India is an employee engagement company providing consulting and team building services.  

Motivational Trainings and Talks

For infotainment, we suggest corporates to go for institutional talks. These are interactive talks with an outside professional on topic related to your industry or sometimes a trending topic of discussion like finance, technology, environment and more. The idea of conducting these interactions is to have a healthy discussion on topics people would love to know more about. Other than improving one’s knowledge, it is a way to target better communication in a group. 

For a more training-oriented activity, we suggest conducting speaker sessions on topics like sales, leadership, motivation and more. 

A good idea is combining these with some team building activities to add fun and focus on specific values like trust, teamwork, leadership, bonding or anything specific to your company values. 

We, at TeamWork India are acting as a medium of connection between industry professionals and  corporates and successfully conducted sessions on motivation, sales, customer representative training and talks on investments, gender equality, inclusivity and much more.  

This was about using speaker sessions as a team building activity. But this of course is not it. Team building or employee engagement activities are usually assumed to be just games for fun while there is a whole new world other than just fun. In fact, team building activities are actually focused at certain values and attributes like responsibility, accountability, crisis management, group dynamics; we have the A to Z of attributes being focused. Get in touch with us to know what should you focus on and how do you achieve improvement.   

               

We are offering pro bono consulting to some corporates to guide you on what would work best for you. 

If you would like to consult us or book a session, reach us through a mail or phone call and we will schedule a meeting.
