Is your team missing the benefits of workplace connection? Remote working can have serious implications for some of your team and the potential to seriously derail your business. Online play might just have the answer!
Belonging is one of the most important needs we humans must fulfil. It’s essential for healthy functioning and wellbeing. Through play, we can build connections that will give us stronger, bonded and more resilient teams.
Businesses are learning fast how to use technology to keep our teams in touch during the Covid-19 pandemic. We all want our people to come out of this with good mental, emotional and physical health; as well as the business to survive and thrive.
It’s normal to crave contact with people we spend most of our time with, especially when that contact is suddenly removed. During this time of social isolation and business uncertainty, people are missing their work colleagues and friends – they’re feeling vulnerable.
One of our biggest challenges is to stay connected. Everybody is different in how much contact they need and how much they’re affected by the loss of contact. Some cope better than others.
