show if they are on time, or ahead of schedule. This is very inexpensive, but well received.
Employees love to eat!
Feed the Teams: Smith and Nephew encourage their various departments to select a weekend to
feed the mfg. teams that have to work. They arrive at 8:00 p.m. Friday night for the second shift,
2:00 a.m. for the third shift, and at noon on Saturday for the first shift. The teams have been very
appreciative.
Executive Lunch: Tenet HealthSystem selects an employee from each department via e-mail to
join Executives (VPs) for lunch. Approximately 10 executives and 15 employees have lunch in a
conference room on the Executive floor on a monthly basis. There is no set agenda. Coworkers get a
chance to interact with one another, and interact with executives on an informal basis. This program
has done a lot for job engagement.
