Let’s Shift Things Up

We Help Teams Improve

Communication

When communication channels are ineffective, inconsistent, or lacking, employees may feel uninformed, disconnected, or left out of important discussions and decision-making processes.

Creativity

Teams that lack creativity can experience stagnation, lack of innovation, poor problem solving, reduced adaptability and diminished employee satisfaction.

Collaboration

If teams lack trust, cooperation, or a sense of shared purpose, it can lead to internal conflicts, limited knowledge sharing, and difficulties in working together effectively.

The Shift

Infusing more play at work can improve communication by breaking down barriers, enhancing trust, improving non-verbal communication, and encouraging active listening.

The Shift

Integrating playful activities at work enhances creativity and stimulates out-of-the-box thinking and innovation.

The Shift

Playful team-building activities strengthen team dynamics by creating shared experiences, fostering a sense of connection, creating opportunities for feedback and boosting employee engagement.

Inclusion

If there is a lack of diversity and inclusion within the team, individuals may feel excluded, marginalized, or that their perspectives and experiences are not valued. This can negatively impact teamwork and employee satisfaction.

Understanding

Employees may feel undervalued or unappreciated if their contributions and achievements go unnoticed or unacknowledged. A lack of understanding can impact morale and motivation within the team.

Infusing more play at work can enhance workplace recognition by fostering increased engagement, creating positive feedback loops, helping to celebrate milestones, encouraging spontaneous recognition and enhancing team spirit.
