Communication


“Communicating with the rest of the team” – Gemma Sanderson


Having regular catch-ups and conversations as a team ensures that you are all up to date and really does boost team moral. For maximum efficiency include your team in the decision-making processes. They will feel valued when their opinion matters and can often come up with great ideas when discussing collaboratively.


Set Clear Goals

Who doesn’t like ticking off a list?! Setting clear goals is a great way to begin and is the foundation for success. Whether you encourage your team to set out their own list of tasks or work collaboratively, ensure your goals are achievable, clear, and precise. Checking off a list can be very satisfying, will boost employee motivation and in turn improves productivity.


Optimise Your Work Environment

A lot of company structures have changed over the last 2 years resulting in more and more employees working from home. Allowing employees the flexibility and trust to alter their conditions will benefit them greatly. By having a specific place to work and removing any potential distractions, efficiency is increased and a teams productivity is improved.


Take Regular Breaks


“Drink many glasses of water and cups of tea” – Tom Allen


How many breaks should you have and what should you do on those breaks to improve productivity? Ultimately you should take a lunch break as a minimum, however additional smaller breaks just to re-fuel can be equally as effective throughout the day.

Stepping away for a few minutes to make your favourite drink and grab a biscuit can be enough to re-set. Workers will feel refreshed and ready to continue with a clear head*.


Planning And Organisation


“Keeping all tools and files organised” – Gemma Sanderson


There are many tools out there which can help your team stay connected, and plan effectively, like Trello. Having a clear collaborative platform to work on will improve team productivity, but its crucial not to overcomplicate processes and the number of tools they have to use. Nobody wants to waste time clicking between tools and having multiple processes to achieve something that could be done in one system.

And there you have it, a few top tips on how you can help your team to be more productive in 2022.
