Here are some simple tips to keep a high energy and fun environment for the Sales Team.
Make it comfortable
This can be interpreted in lots of different ways. Perhaps your team would benefit from a shared work space or an open floor plan. You could also have couches and such in the office to make it not only feel comfortable, but look comfortable to others.
Play games
Start-up companies are famous for giving employees ways to let off some steam. The choices are endless, and include ping pong and pool tables, corn hole, video games, and more.
Set aside time for fun
Sometimes people need to be reminded to take a break. Try to schedule time once a week for something non-work related. You could have a tournament playing one of the games. Another idea is to schedule a night for everyone to go out. It is important to lighten up the mood and be relaxed.
A fun work environment has many benefits. Employees will look forward to coming to the office and productivity will increase. In addition, prospective hires and clients will be impressed with the quality of office life you provide. Something that I personally am looking for is a fun and competitive work environment.
I have found this to be true in my own life. My boss over the summer bought all the employees Nerf guns just to shoot one another, and it made work 10 times more enjoyable.
