đŁ Sure, Easter egg hunts and team lunches have their place, especially as teams reconnected post-COVID.
But long-term engagement begins before someone even joins your business.
The most engaged teams arenât the ones with the biggest social calendarsâtheyâre the ones who are aligned, motivated, and invested in the work they do.
Culture and Hiring Go Hand-in-Hand
You canât manufacture team culture overnight. And you certainly canât fix it with an egg-and-spoon race or free chocolates ( maybe some are easily bought ).
Culture is built through strategic hiring and leadershipâby bringing in people who align with your values, communicate well, and lift the energy of the team.
If youâre constantly looking for ways to âre-engageâ staff around seasonal holidays or other events, it might be time to ask whether your hiring process is focused on short-term feel good or long-term fit and planning.
The best teams donât need forced bonding activities. Engagement is embedded into how they operateâright from day one.
