Dear all
HR is going to conduct a new activity in 2014 called "Staff Welfare Outdoor Activity (1 day) ". The objectives of this activity are as follows:-
- To encourage the Healthy Work-Life Balance and reduce stress for employees
- To build the teamwork among business for a better and effective performance
- To create supportive environments for health promotion
Moreover, we truly believe that this activity will make the participant well-understanding about:-
1) “Can do” attitude : To be more creative and Innovative. Also, they will learn to encourage and be open-minded for different viewpoints in order to improve the process or solve problems.
2) “Achievement Motivation”: To understand the goals and is committed to attaining them. This clear direction and agreement on mission and purpose is essential for effective team work. This team clarity is reinforced when the organization has clear expectations for the team's work, goals, accountability, and outcomes.
3) “Trust” : To create an environment in which people are comfortable taking reasonable risks in communicating, advocating positions, and taking action. Team members trust each other. Team members are not punished for disagreeing.
4) “Communication” : To be open, honest, and respectful. People feel free to express their thoughts, opinions, and potential solutions to problems. People feel as if they are heard out and listened to by team members who are attempting to understand. Team members ask questions for clarity and spend their thought time listening deeply rather than forming rebuttals while their coworker is speaking.
5) “Teamwork” : To have a strong sense of belonging to the group. They experience a deep commitment to the group’s decisions and actions. This sense of belonging is enhanced and reinforced when the team spends the time to develop team norms or relationship guidelines together.
6) “Coordination” : To share information because team members are viewed as unique people with irreplaceable experiences, points of view, knowledge, and opinions to contribute. After all, the purpose for forming a team is to take advantage of the differences. Otherwise, why would any organization approach projects, products, or goals with a team. In fact, the more that a team can bring out divergent points of view, that are thoughtfully presented and supported with facts as well as opinions, the better.
