Harvard Business Review recently reported that happy employees have, on average, 31 percent higher productivity, 37 percent higher sales results and 3 times higher creativity than unhappy employees. It’s statistics like these that inspire us to take culture seriously at Movéo. We believe that fostering the happiness of our employees and building a great environment for our team is crucial to our success.
We’re proud of the many ways we mixed work with play, contributed to our community as a team and celebrated employee achievements in 2015, and we can’t wait to keep strengthening our culture in 2016. Here’s a glimpse at three initiatives that have become core to our company culture at Movéo.
At Movéo, our Worksgiving festivities provide a great way to kick off the holiday season. While the food is always the center of attention, it’s the chance to give thanks for our clients and colleagues, and have fun as a team during this busy time of year that makes Worksgiving an important tradition at Movéo.
Movéo is a longtime supporter of the Movember Foundation, an organization focused on raising funds for men’s health issues like prostate and testicular cancer research. Movember encourages workplaces and community groups to get involved through their “Moustaches in Movember” and “Move in Movember” programs, both of which we participated in last year. A group of male employees grew out moustaches to raise funds for Movember last November, and many team members also participated in an office ping pong tournament in support of the foundation. As a group, we raised over $2,000 for men’s health causes in 2015, and we look forward to raising even more in 2016.
At Movéo, we make a point of acknowledging our employees’ dedication to our firm. This year, six employees reached 15 years with Movéo. Our firm would not be what it is today without the contributions of these team members, so we threw a party to celebrate their service. We believe that by honoring our employees’ achievements, we both reward their work and inspire our team to conquer the next challenge.
