Hi ,
Its a good presentation. This ppt just provoked a thought in my mind that 'HR tries to keep all at ease at work place but if they will be at ease they may not perform with that dedication as easiness always drags the casuality.
When i was a student i was also gaga about this perticular point of HR but when m actually in workfeild sometimes it feels that there something more to explore.
Give it a thought and share the thoughts

Volunteer time as you have it - that might make someone's day

BE THERE

Smile when you see your co-worker

Smile more

Smile when you pass someone and acknowledge them

Challenge people to smile

Answer the phone with a smile on your face

Share with co-workers 2x

Be friendly and make co-workers laugh

Be careful not to let your attitude influence your hearing

When you see someone at work sad, go give them a big hug and say they look great today

Make a point to get to know everyone (if you don't already)

Show up for work!



CHOOSE YOUR ATTITUDE

Start each day with a personal positive thought

Come in with an awesome attitude ha ha

Put on a smile - Happy faces work better!

Try to start the day with something good, funny, helpful, etc!

Think happy thoughts

Change attitudes

Be more pleasant to everyone even if you are having a bad day

Choose your attitude or at least be able to recognize that when your attitude is not up to snuff to change it. Thus making others around you feel better about interacting with you.

Have a great attitude

Leave your home stress home

Walk around the building on your break and say hi to everyone you see

This book is all about Fun at work and enjoy work.
Fish markets are tough places to work. Monotony. Handling Dead fishes. Smell.and what creativity one can expect in this monotonous job???
And then this BOOk revealed that even in such a place where there seems to be no room for creativity, people enjoyed work by creating new methods and identifying new ways of enjoying work.
And the author ( and it was an actual real time exp) carries this enthusism to her place of work
Since it started from this Fish market, it is referred to as Fish Philosophy
