Fun at Work" might sound like an oxymoron, but it is a reality in the corporate world today. The most successful of organizations add a healthy dose of play into their routines because research shows that when people have fun at work, they enjoy their jobs and this translates them into being more creative, more productive and more committed to doing their job well. It’s also no secret that having fun at work can help boost morale, reduce stress, improve
staff retention, mean less sick days and increase team building and spirit.
Having true fun at work is very similar to the kind of fun one has when playing a sport or performing. For example, the last time I played a sport in front of an audience, I channeled all my attention and energy to the point where I was solely focused on my performance. I remember how much fun it was getting congratulations from my teammates and the audience! And even though I was completely exhausted following my performance, I remember how great I felt afterwards.
I think this is the type of fun that best fits the workplace - playful and competitive games that generate congratulations and cheers from coworkers. Additionally, sporting or performance types of fun fit well within the workplace where employers generally want us to have energy, drive, talent, determination, competitive spirit, and be goal orientated.
This kind of fun is successfully being implemented at Genpact. We’ve already had a Football Championship which involved a lot of employees. Emotions were shared and the teams really had intensive fun. Now Genpact has its own football team, who represents the company at the biggest football tournament dedicated to all companies.
Cross-training (Also known as conditioning) refers to training in different ways to improve overall performance. It takes advantage of the particular effectiveness of each training method, while at the same time attempting to neglect the shortcomings of that method by combining it with other methods that address its weaknesses.
Cross-training in business operations involves training employees to engage in quality control measures. Employees are trained in tangent job functions to increase oversight in ways that are impossible through management interactions with workers alone.
Advantages:
Helps patrons/customers/clients in the long run, as employees are empowered to answer questions about the entire organization.
Requires staff to re-evaluate the reasons and methods for accomplishing their work; inefficient methods, outdated techniques and bureaucratic drift are challenged, if not eliminated.
Raises an awareness of what other departments do.
Routine scheduling is enhanced with the ability to move staff about the "Operation". Better coverage, increased flexibility and ability to cope with unexpected absences,
emergencies, illness, etc.
Can increase the "employability" of staff that has the opportunity to train in areas they were not originally hired for.
Other advantages include
Increased flexibility and versatility, Appreciated "intellectual capital" Improved individual efficiency, Increased standardization of jobs, Heightened Morale
A huddle is when a team gathers together, usually in a tight circle, to strategise, motivate, and/or celebrate. It is a popular strategy for keeping opponents insulated from sensitive information, and acts as a form of insulation when the level of noise in the venue is such that normal on-field communication is difficult. Commonly the leader of the huddle is the team captain and it is the captain who will try and inspire his fellow team members to achieve success. Similarly after an event a huddle may take place to congratulate one another for the teams success (or commiserate a defeat). The term "huddle" can be used as a verb as in "huddling up".
