To inspire your employees to try something new and challenging outside their normal work environment, why not assign them a task or two, every now and then.
Here are some ideas:
- Present a proposal to management
- Organise a company social lunch
- Write a media/press release
- Install a new system
- Create a team to work on a new assignment
- Plan a convention or conference
- Supervise a team
- Handle negotiations with a customer
- Represent the company at the careers expo or trade show
- Make a speech for the organisation
- Go on a business trip to another country
- Go to a campus to recruit
- Work for a short time in another unit of the organisation
- Manage an office renovation project
- Design office layout
- Work on a project with a tight deadline
- Manage the visit of a corporate official or VIP
- Launch a new product/service
Or why not give them the opportunity to do some training to enhance their skills?
