The holidays can be a very fun and very distracting time of year. Most people will need to take some time off to travel, shop, cook, attend school plays, etc. What is weird about all this is your boss still expects you to work in December!

To help you navigate the holidays, Foxie we have come up with five surefire ways to help you be as productive as possible at work, while also giving you more time to enjoy the holidays…because life isn’t all about work. 

Having honest communication at work plays a huge factor in every aspect of your day. It can make your job a wonderful place to work or a place you dread going to. Many people don’t want to speak up in fear that others will think their idea is not a good one. Others stay quiet even when they have questions, feeling that they will look stupid because they should already know the answer. This can really hinder production and growth.

The coronavirus pandemic has changed the world in which we live, and surprisingly, not all of it is for the worse. Employees have realized that time spent with their family is very important, getting enough rest is vital to their health and that wasting an hour or more every day commuting is not fun.

With the technology we now have at our fingertips, we can do everything from home while on our computers, laptops, or cell phones. Besides working from home, people can take online classes, have anything they desire delivered to their doorstep, and communicate with anyone anywhere in the world. This is life in 2022 and businesses must adapt.

You want your workplace to be a place where people feel comfortable with each other and don’t have to be constantly questioning what they are told. Trust is earned, not given. Once that bond is broken, it is very hard to get it back.   

Foxie has come up with a few suggestions as to how to build trust at work...which in turn will improve morale and build better relationships between employees and management.         

When you own or run a small business, undoubtedly one of your major challenges is determining how to make your business stand out from your competition.
