Appreciation at Desk
If you are looking for one more activity in addition to or in place of the Thanksgiving Wall, we bring to you yet another easy and fun activity to foster a culture of positivity.
It’s always fun to be old school and appreciate our team members with a genuine handwritten compliment.
This activity is for one day. Following are the simple steps to conduct this activity and spread the positive vibes:
- Announce the activity at least a day in advance and also circulate an email.
- Allot a colour to each floor / function / group – they will get sticky notes of the colour allotted to them.
- Distribute the sticky notes to all the people. You can also place a small guideline note along with it.
- Each person will pen-down appreciation message on these sticky notes, for people who have been helping them or have been a reason for their smiles.
- They can write as many appreciation notes as they would like to. They can write it for different floors / functions / groups.
- They need to place it on the desk of person for whom they have written the note.
- In the evening, let the volunteers go around and count the number of sticky notes of each colour. The group which has posted largest number of notes is declared winner.
- What do you need for the activity: Enough number of post-it sticky notes of colours you have decided.
- Bonus ideas:
- Reward the person(s) getting highest number of appreciation notes.
- Place a chocolate along with post-it and you will be delighted to see the happiness on their face.
- Get specially designed sticky notes for this activity.
