Creating A Healthy Environment In And Outside Of Work

by Alessandra Cavalluzzi

With Earth Day around the corner, leaders have a great opportunity to spend some quality time with their employees.  Whether you are a manager or the CEO, if you want to create an activity that will foster team work and boost employee engagement, look no further than volunteerism.  Of course you don’t need to wait for Earth Day to get started, but there is something to be said about seeing senior leadership rolling up their sleeves and getting their manual labor on with the rest of the team.   Bonding at its best!
