How to know when is the right time to start doing things differently?
One thing that everyone has and sometimes does not know what to do with is the free time. Nowadays, more and more companies has been developing sophisticated strategies to keep it's employees happy, but every B2E (Business to Employee) manager may have wondered about what kind of activities brings could be interesting.
Why is it important to take advantage of free time?
Free time is important to our health in all three aspects of it: social, mental, and physical. In the social department, it is important because it offers you time to spend with friends and family. In this way, you gain opportunities to grow closer to the people that are important in your life. Workaholics, for example, do not have much free time and it has often been observed that their families suffer or fall apart. Being close with your loved ones is important because they are the ones that support you during hard times. Free time is important mentally because it offers the mind a chance to relax and refresh itself after working for a longer period of time.
Having said that, we can decide if this free time is going to be wasted or if we want to take advantage of it. Some companies are smart and have been developing well-being programs to keep employees motivated and productive. Now, as ages change, employees do as well, and people use to prefer to try different and creative activities, in which there are learning and re-creative components which make free-time spaces more productive and shareable. Let's see a couple of insights that could suggest that it's time to do different things.
1. Running out of ideas:
If you are the B2E executive of your company, and you are facing the situation in which you are there, looking at the screen without an idea of what to propose for the next company integration program, maybe it's because you realized that it's time to do something different.
2. Tired of "one-time" experiences:
The common options to share with colleagues are parties, dinners or night activities. Those are great options, you could be sure that everyone will feel joy doing that, but maybe it could be a good idea to prepare activities in which your employees develop team work skills.
3. You want to be creative and to be on time:
The business world is unpredictable, sometimes you just have to change everything to fit your new schedule (because it changed five minutes ago). In that situation, you probably need a flexible solution, because the time does not stop, right?
Also, don't forget that if you really want to make the difference with your employees and friends, you must be creative, reach the expectation and just propose something that could be new for everyone.
