Still, it’s not impossible to boost morale and help employees feel empowered to succeed at work — in fact, it’s more important to try now than perhaps ever before. Your employees deserve to feel wanted, needed, and appreciated. And you’re in a unique position to uplift them in a variety of ways, both prompting a better work experience and helping to reduce workplace stress however possible.
1. Reiterate your corporate purpose.
Did your organization’s vision or direction change due to the pandemic? If you answered “yes,” you’re in good company. Plenty of businesses made major pivots during the past year. However, they didn’t all update or publish new objectives, and that could present problems. It’s impossible for employees to feel aligned with the purpose of your brand if they don’t know what that purpose is.
2. Reskill your current team.
What’s the No. 1 reason for job jumping? It’s not bad bosses or paltry pay. Gallup research shows it’s rooted in employees wanting more growth opportunities. Yet far too many businesses don’t pay attention to the importance of upskilling or recognize that reskilling individuals makes the company smarter and employee-employer ties tighter.
3. Value well-being as much as productivity
Even if you feel your culture places value on personal well-being, it’s important to step back and reassess what that looks like, especially if you haven’t dug in since before COVID-19. For example, do your supervisors know how to recognize burnout in their direct reports? Do they often urge workers to take breaks, use paid time off, and care for themselves? Ultimately, employees aren’t machines — they need rest and breaks to stay focused and motivated and to produce high-quality work.
