The Challenge Bowl is a fun and easy way for team members to answer questions and complete short activities to deepen team bonds.
Pick one item from the Challenge Bowl each day to liven up daily meetings or run through the entire board to engage your team during virtual team lunches or happy hours.
How it Works:
Be prepared for some fun, giggles, and even some deep thinking. You can even customize the template to create your own Team Challenge Bowl tailored for your team.
If you’re a full-time professional, you spend a lot of time with your coworkers, so it’s worth developing healthy, happy work relationships.
While most often applied to personal relationships, understanding your coworkers’ love languages — like quality time — can improve these connections.
This is especially true if you’re a manager wanting to appreciate your team so they feel motivated to continue working hard.
You can use various love languages at work to empathize with them and show gratitude in a way that they respond well to.
Using the 5 love language in the workplace
Everyone needs to feel appreciated to know they’re contributing valuable work and ideas.
But effectively demonstrating appreciation often requires more than saying “Good job.”
We get it.
🍷 That glass of wine at the end of the day, or partying over the weekend seems like the go-to reward for your busy, stressed life.
But what if there was a better way to unwind? A way to savor a drink without sacrificing your health or productivity.
That’s where Sunnyside comes in. They don’t shame you for enjoying alcohol. They know you deserve to relax — but as high-achieving women, we also want to take care of our bodies and minds.
So, Sunnyside offers personalized guidance to build a healthier relationship with drinking. One that works for your lifestyle. No more worrying about overdoing it or dreading the morning after.
Don’t we deserve to have it all — rewarding careers, active social lives, and healthy bodies?
