Just as same as the positive energy that you reflect to your co-workers, the furniture that you bought to your office also contribute to your productivity.
Who said offices can't be fun? Offices are the areas where most people spend the most hours of the day. The positive energy in your office contributes to the productivity of your employees as much as the furniture you buy for your offices. Working overtime and working long hours in a fun-filled office is not difficult for anyone. Now let's look at ways to add some fun to your offices, shall we?
Colorful Office Furnitures
Being in an office where all the furniture is brown can sometimes lower your energy. Of course, we don't expect all office furniture to be yellow, do we? However, you can make your office more fun with small color transitions such as an orange lounge chair that you will place among the boring tones of office furniture, and your meeting table being bright blue.
Pet
Pets can maintain their existences in offices just as they can in homes. By adopting a cat or dog, you can turn your office into a place with full of love and energy. The purring of a cat and the games of a dog will turn your office into a warm and loving space as soon as the energy of the employees drops.
Happy Hour
The energy and motivation of each employee may decrease during working hours. To make the atmosphere fun, you can have a mini party in your office at this time once a week. Favorite drinks, food and these hours when everyone chats and socializes are perfect for motivation to work.
Group Exercises
Everyone needs some relaxation and stretching of their aching shoulders, back and waist from looking at the same computer in the chair all day. Having an exercise area where your office workers can join together will both relieve their pain and increase their commitment to the office.
Reward System
Awards such as the successful employee of the week, the funniest employee of the week, the newest employee of the week give motivation to people and also cause pleasant moments to be experienced. Do not forget to keep the reward system away from realistic criteria and to mention that this system is an activity for entertainment and socialization.
Recreation Room
You can prepare rooms where your employees can play games together in order to use the empty spaces in the office more efficiently and to get some distraction. With a few office chairs and tables, the games you will place according to the taste of your employees will definitely increase the communication and entertainment in the office.
Casual Friday
You may be working in your office with suits and stylish jackets and shirts every day. However, allowing employees to dress as they wish one day a week not only makes your office a more fun environment, but also increases work motivation and commitment to the office. Be sure to try it!
