5 Tips On Creating A Happy Work Environment.


• Start with yourself.
Determine that you will be positive no matter what. It all begins with you. Do not wait for another coworker to introduce the fun. You know that fun will lighten the day so be determined to enjoy your day.

• Bring in a healthy snack.
This could be a fruit or vegetable tray. When you bring in the snack, do not give it to your coworkers early in the morning or after lunch. Wait for a time when their last meal was two hours prior, like 3pm in the afternoon or 10:30 am. They will appreciate it more.

• Organize a coworker of the week game.
This is a game where you put everyone’s name in a hat and randomly pick one name. At the end of the week everybody says something they like about this person or mentions their strengths. Buy them a small affordable gift to show that you appreciate them.

• Celebrate birthdays.
Ask everyone when their birthday is and collect a donation to buy a cake. If you can bake the cake it will cut down on the cost.
Make sure you sing “Happy Birthday” for your coworkers.
It does not matter whether you have a melodious voice or not, make sure you enjoy the singing and tell them how special they are.

• Organize a pet of the month day.
Ask everyone to bring in a picture of their favorite pet. If they do not have a pet, they can bring a picture of their favorite animal.

After one week take a vote. The winner can get a gift card of about 10 dollars to buy their pet some food and if they do not have a pet they can just enjoy the money.
These are a few tips that will lighten the mood of everyone at your workplace.

Share with us some things that you do to create a happy work environment.
