Teams are most productive when composed of physically, mentally, and emotionally healthy individuals. They are more creative. They are more productive. They are more collaborative. They are, simply put, the best versions of themselves.
Bring your team together like never before with our Virtual Team & Health Building that builds the health of your team by building the health of the individual.
Is Virtual Team & Health Building For My Team?
If you feel like your team is experiencing any of these symptoms, the answer is yes.
My team is becoming dysfunctional
I am recognizing an absence of trust, fear of conflict, lack of commitment, avoidance of accountability, and inattention to results. These are the classic signals of dysfunction within a team.
Why this is important to watch for: It’s too easy for remote teams to lose a sense of belonging, feel disconnected from the culture of the organization, and lose sight of and commitment to the corporation’s aims and objectives. The “heartbeat” of the office can go missing, and when it does, dysfunction follows.
I notice work-life balance eroding
I see emails from my team coming in late at night and an increase of blank screens during video meetings (Zoom fatigue).
Why this is important to watch for: Even with more flexibility to manage work hours than ever before, 66% of office workers are working more nights and weekends, 49% find it difficult to keep boundaries, and 59% feel less effective. A long-term risk of blurring the line between work and life is accelerated employee burnout.
Mental, physical, and emotional health are deteriorating
Even though my team initially appreciated the freedom to customize their day when first working from home, they are now often complaining of boredom and loneliness.
Why this is important to watch for: If left, these initial behaviors can grow into apathy, a lack of motivation, withdrawal, and difficulty concentrating and making decisions. Physically, employees are moving less and going to the fridge more, accelerating health risks and cognitive decline.
