20. In every office, organization, business or workplace, productivity
is very important. It plays a crucial role in the growth and success
of businesses or companies in all industries.
Productivity in the workplace will often translate into good customer
service and interaction
When employees are highly productive the company achieves its
goals of investing in them in the first place
Productivity also helps to motivate the workplace culture and boost
moral, producing an even better company environment.

21. The key towards achieving productivity is teamwork. Having
it in your workplace will ensure a good company profile and
an excellent venue for success.
Question is, how? Here are six factors in improving
productivity.

22. 1. Collaborate
Encourage collaboration within
your staff. This way, you’ll give
people with different perspectives
and skill sets an opportunity to
think creatively and challenge
themselves in the given tasks.

23. 2. Positive Management
In A Workplace, Positive Attitude
Breeds Increased Productivity.
Given This, A Positive
Management Among Employees
Could Lead To Positive Results And
More Productive Team.

24. 3. Awards And Recognition
The best way to recognize you
employees’ efforts is to give them
incentives or awards. Match your
employee rewards program to the
needs and interests of employees are a
key to increase morale and productivity.

25. 4. Set Attainable Common Goals
Look for your staff’s participation to establish
the ways you can accomplish both short-term
and long-term goals. This way, they can set
their minds to the goals and give them the
tools they need to accomplish them which is an
efficient way to check more goals off your list.

26. 5. Team Building
Work hard, play hard. When your employees
make so many efforts at work, they deserve to
have a break. Bonding over something funny
or having down-time at things like team
lunches breaks down the barriers that allow
your employees to feel comfortable at work.

27. 6. Work-Life Balance
Establishing work-life balance is a major
factor in increasing productivity. According
to experts, it can increase employee
attraction and retention, and boost
workforce productivity.
