NYSL Promotions Leverages Competition to Boost Morale

The NYSL Promotions leadership team has been generating friendly competition in the office to boost productivity and morale. The firm's president reported that this approach is highly effective.

​​Joe, NYSL Promotions’ president, pointed out that people are largely driven by competition. “Competition is typically what drives people to success,” he said. “This is the reasoning behind our latest push for competitive yet fun activity in the office. In many ways we operate similarly to a sports team.”

According to Joe, maintaining high productivity and performance in any setting is no easy feat. “There are countless techniques we use to operate at full throttle, and some are more influential than others,” he stated. “In my experience, athletics offer the ideal model for succeeding as a team. That’s why I’ve opted to add some health competition into our culture at NYSL Promotions.”

"Some other issues we address include accountability, willingness to learn, problem solving, and the value of practice,"

“Of course, there are several levels of competition,” indicated Joe. “I’m very careful to avoid anything too cutthroat, which can severely hamper the cohesion of our group. Harmless fun is the goal, and I think it’s an integral reason for our success.” He noted that friendly competition requires a common goal. For instance, they each might try to collect the most items for a food drive. The common goal in such a scenario is to make a large donation to those in need. It’s not simply about who can be the best.

Joe also works hard to boost morale and reinforce other team values, such as communication and collaboration. This is accomplished largely through team-building events like group dinners and movie nights. “Some other issues we address include accountability, willingness to learn, problem solving, and the value of practice,” he continued. “All these topics reflect discussions that take place on athletic teams, and I believe they should be part of every company culture as well.”

“Finally, I invest heavily into letting every one of the team members at NYSL Promotions know how much I appreciate them,” Joe concluded. “That’s probably the biggest morale booster I can offer. I give positive feedback all the time. I thank them for their hard work, and I lead by example. I also allow them to attend conferences and trainings when possible. These are things that make the most impact. Our team spirit and success as a business is proof that healthy morale breeds excellence.”
