Boost Employee Engagement With The Gift of Reading

Could your staff use a boost? Engage your team with the gift of reading! Reading can give your employees the ability to gain new insights and tips on their area of expertise.

Even if they are given the opportunity to read a fiction book, reading is a stress relief for many.

Here are three ways reading will help your employees, coworkers, and friends re-focus, gain new insights, and relax.

New Perspectives

Reading helps shift different perspectives. From blog posts, novels, or magazines, reading can help teach people something new about customers, communication, and businesses. So, people naturally gravitate towards reading.

Reading provides a fresh perspective and will consistently keep your employees, coworkers, even your friends on their toes, working to be the best. New insights and fresh perspectives will help you be better at your job.

News

Adding another newsletter to your email inbox isn't necessarily appealing or exciting, but finding a great site will keep you up to date on different events of interest.

Twitter is a good outlet to keep up with current news nowadays! Follow a few accounts that will give you insights into daily news, technology, and business trends. You'll be able to stay up to date easily! Like most, life can get busy. But, 140 character news will keep you in the know, just in case. Take a few minutes during the first few sips of your coffee to catch up on the news.

If you aren't a big fan of scrolling through Twitter's feed, CTVNews or your local news channel will give you the same benefits as well.

Company Culture

Assigning a book to an employee’s reading list can help you shape your company or department culture. If there is a certain book that will guide your newest hire though the transition, give it to them to read and understand the company culture.

Follow up with them and hear their thoughts on the book and how it can be applied in the workplace. By understanding the workplace culture, an employee is able to better communicate within the team. They can make decisions that are more consistent with the company’s goals and values.
