A couple things I notice that get my team's energy up:
- Time to share personal stuff: It's so important to connect as humans and can easily be missed but I see the impact on team relationships being huge!
- We do a monthly 'hang meeting' where we talk about non-work stuff for 30-45 minutes which isn't possible for everyone...
- This also looks like asking questions in our team chat like music or audiobook recommendations, ideas for gift exchanges, soup recipes, etc.
- Asking people to share a win with the team or larger business when they share it 1-on-1 with me: People need that encouragement that 'this is worth sharing/talking about' and the sense of ownership and excitement is always great to see!
