The strongest message in the infographic below is that most workplaces are disconnected on a HUMAN level – that is so sad!!
Not so at DemGen …. Our goal has always been, and remains so to this day, to be connected – with the whole person! Sure we are virtual but that hasn’t kept us from staying strongly connected. We stay in touch by text, Skype, emails, phone calls, love notes, social media, annual performance reviews and regular feedback on projects.
We honour and celebrate team members on their birthday with a special message, we send quarterly love notes that give updates on the business, we have a client and team newsletter, we use Basecamp (our project management hub) and update it with positive focus messages, knowledge sharing, collaboration, recipes, funny stories or videos …. Need I say more?
The proof of the benefit of this communicative and caring style = long-term engaged team members!! That my friends, is priceless!! So go on, GET CONNECTED!
