Bestselling Author Shares Ways to Make Work
Fun, Fulfilling
SALT
LAKE CITY, March 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- With
March 2023 designated as Employee
Spirit Month, which honors all hard-working employees, a
bestselling author is sharing five ways to boost employee morale
for ongoing, upward progress.
"When employee morale is high, we see productivity soar, so it's
important to keep morale at a high level for many reasons," said
Kevin Guest, chairman and CEO of
USANA Health Sciences (NYSE: USNA), a billion-dollar nutritional
supplement company in 24 worldwide markets. "Boosting employee
optimism can happen with five proven ways that enhance individuals,
teams and companies."
In his book, All the Right Reasons, 12 Timeless Principles
for Living a Life in Harmony, Guest writes, "Nothing is more
important than relationships," realizing that, at the core,
companies are primarily groups of people providing services or
products. Lifting employees higher benefits everyone with
high-level positivity.
Guest said to first be vigilant in creating a positive work
environment, supporting team-building activities, and celebrating
employee achievements.
"An upbeat work environment reduces stress and provides an
atmosphere of collaboration and communication, which benefits every
organization," he said. "Team-building activities unite people
because they let employees bond over shared experiences outside of
work.
"When a supervisor genuinely shows appreciation for an
employee's good performance, it makes a huge statement that the
company values each person."
Next, dutifully listen and respond to employee feedback to
demonstrate inclusivity and value to employees.
"While making the work environment a safe place to share
feedback is important, it's equally valuable to show employees you
are acting on valid points they've raised," he said. "If you simply
can't act on their suggestions, you have to state that and give a
valid reason to continue to lead with trust and respect."
Finally, in today's sometimes fatigued work world, promoting
work-life balance acknowledges that company leadership understands
employees have important personal lives that should be
addressed.
"Each circumstance calls for its own practices, but mental
balance is key because when employees are balanced in life, they
bring that stability and happiness to work, which results in more
productive results at every level," said Guest.
Drawing on the power of values to help others find life's
success secrets, All the Right Reasons uncovers 12
principles for living a life in harmony. All proceeds of the
book, now on Amazon, go to feeding hungry children, with each book
purchase providing 40 meals.
