You’re not doing a great deal of good throwing an egg and bacon roll at your employees or putting a stack of money behind the bar so your worker's can get trollied every once in a while and talk nonsense for the effective working of your team.

Move into 2026 and do some actual bonding with your team that’s not only enjoyable but also brings about real, practicable results that can level up how they work together and the effectiveness of your workshop.

You Know What To Do So Why Are You Stuck? 

You've survived in business this long, likely because you're good at what you do and your client and employee community are fans of what you've created. What happens though when you have an employee who asks you to compromise your company values, to move outside the way you'd promised yourself and others you'd show up? It can be tempting to let it slide and compromise to keep the peace but the flow on effects won't be favourable. Rach gives some great advice on what to do in these circumstances.
