Workplaces are naturally a challenge to keep energy positive. You’re essentially bringing people together to do things they don’t necessarily want to do with people they might not want to do it with.
Especially if management is ineffective, things can get out of hand, gossip can be whispered, and enemies made. So how do we keep the energy positive in our workplace?
Keyword is ‘effectively.’ I’m sure we’ve all been in a work setting where coworkers and supervisors don’t communicate well. In the absence of good communication you find conflict, gossip, and negative energy. It’s more than communicating your own thoughts and needs to your coworkers or employees, but making sure you’re doing what you can to help them talk to each other. When you hear gossip or complaints, get the two parties together to talk it out. The energy of the workplace will improve.
This one’s easy. When you’re surrounded by negative energy, be a beacon of positivity. Be kind to your customers (if you have them) and associates. Foster a positive work environment.
Workplaces have a tendency to stagnate when you’re seeking to accomplish the same goals day in and day out. Work together with your colleagues to form new smaller and larger goals to keep striving for something better. That cooperation between everyone fosters a stronger connection and a better workplace energy.
If you’ve ever had a problem with people bringing home to work and work to home, this one doesn’t need an explanation. They’re two entirely different places to be and should be kept separate as much as possible.
A well organized workplace is a happy one. People not dealing with messes or poorly categorized helps get work done and prevent conflict.
Enjoy your positive workplace!
