4 Ways To Share Your Christmas Spirit With Your Team

Tis' the season for a gratitude attitude! As business owners, we can lose sight of the hard work happening around us in the midst of our personal hustle and bustle. Why not take time this season to really honor your team, strategic business partners, business besties, mentors and customers? Time to trade out your “bah-humbugs” for some heartfelt gratitude.

Here are a few of our favorite ways to show appreciation!

1. Write a handwritten note.

Write a handwritten note to offer some general encouragement or to express what you love most about a team member! Don't overthink it. A well-timed post-it can sometimes be more moving than a Hallmark card!

2. Say thank you at least 10x a day.

It may seem overkill, but the point is to start tracking your attitude and expression of gratitude. Are you a thankful person? Is your team feel appreciated? Do your clients know what their business means to you?

3. Random Acts of Kindness.

Why not try some random acts of kindness! Whether it's paying for a stranger’s Starbucks or giving a freebie to your customers, little blessing goes a LONG way during such a stressful season.

4. Make A Countdown Chain.

One of my FAVORITE ways to show my team I'm grateful is by making a Christmas countdown chain. Sounds cheesy, maybe, but that's the way I roll during the holidays! Make it extra special by personally writing an affirmation on each link for your employees leading into their vacation days! It's such a fun way to celebrate their hard work in the middle of a crazy season!

We hope that you will feel all of the Christmas spirit around your office by honoring your team and everyone involved in your business! There is so much joy when you can spread the cheer by simply taking a little time out of your day to make someone else’s day!
