If I were the boss

What would I do if I were the boss? That is actually a difficult question to answer (at least for me). It seems relatively easy when you sitting at your desk in front of your computer with piles of work, then that’s very easy to answer. Of course it has its perks, a bigger office, perhaps even a better car; the respect of your sub-ordinates? Not necessarily, respect needs to be earned, you give respect and you’ll get respect in return.

That still doesn’t answer the question does it? To be the boss, all that responsibility…

I think I’d like a cool working environment, so here is my list:
  1. I’d have weekly update meetings with the various departments. This promotes communication.
  2. I’d have a “chill-out” zone instead of a staff room. It will contain a refreshment station, cool lounges and video games. Nintendo wii and Playstation and X-Box.
  3. I will give my employees incentives for good, hard work, and a pat on the back for effort.
  4. I want a work environment that’s funky and fresh and still professional. The work environment must make my workers want to work.

    Those I think are my top 4 requirements if I were the boss.

  2. The ideas that you would like to include will add a relaxation factor to your compnay and make employees feel comfotable in the environment they work but also provide an area to take time out when they feel stressed. The only thing that you should think about is that with such a chilled out environment, employees should remember that they are there to work and succeed in the jobs - not just relax.
