Trivia Question of the Week
Q. What’s every player’s bankroll at the start of a Monopoly game? (Answer at the end of this newsletter.)
Employee Morale Activity:
Give Employees an Opportunity to Brag
At the beginning of your next staff meeting. Give each employee a ‘Brag Sheet’ of paper on which to write something they accomplished at work or in their personal life since the last meeting. Give employees a few minutes to write their ‘Brags’ and then hand them in.
Then, at an appropriate time during the meeting, read the brag sheets with enthusiasm and applause after each one.
Listening to other people’s accomplishments is so motivating because people think, “If she can do that, I can, too.”
If you do this regularly at your weekly or monthly meetings, employees will strive to do something they can brag about. To encourage participation, let everyone who turns in a brag sheet participate in a drawing for a small prize.

Joke of the Week
Our school had just installed a new air-conditioning system,
and a representative from the company wanted to make sure it
was running smoothly. Poking his head into an empty classroom,
he asked the teacher, “Any little problems here?”
“No,” she said, smiling. “All our little problems have gone home.”
