The Law of Attraction at Work
Utilizing the Law of Attraction to Help Reach Business Goals
The Law of Attraction is all the rage in personal development. This article will teach businesses how to use this process to create better business practices.
The definition for the Law of Attraction is "You attract to your life whatever you give your attention, energy, and focus to, whether positive or negative." With this in mind, it only makes sense that companies should implement Law of Attraction programs for their workforce to create a growing and positive focus towards success. This article is going to help create a program that any business can implement, whether it's a small sole ownership or Fortune 500 company.
Creating a Law of Attraction Program within your company will take at least a couple of meetings and should be a company wide effort. Going through this process as a company, instead of reserving the process for executives only, will help create a more cohesive working environment and will inspire much better teamwork efforts. Other benefits of instating the Law of Attraction at work is that companies will be better able to meet their goals as the individual employee also meets their own goals. It becomes a winning solution for everyone!
The first meeting should be a brainstorming session about everything that the business desires as a complete entity. Break out the Mission and Vision statements, also have Sales Goals on hand, production Goals, and anything else that your company uses to measure it's growth and productivity. You might also want to include interdepartmental goals, office environment goals, or anything else your company desires to attain to.
Use this meeting to list the main priorities of these goals. Again, it's important to include the entire staff in this meeting, as this will give every staff member a sense of ownership in the goals that were created. Make sure to list every goal as a positive statement. This is a very important aspect in creating positive energy and attracting more of it.
During the next meeting you are going to discuss how to keep focus, as a company, on the goals that have been created. Assign tasks of creating fliers and posters for the goals together and for each goal separately. These will be posted throughout all the work areas to help keep a continual focus on what everyone is working towards together.
Make sure there are visual images for each goal as well as words. For example, if one of the goals is to make $10 million dollars in revenue, create a poster with pictures of stacks of money along with the monthly goal stated, as if it has all ready been accomplished. If the marketing department wants to create a household name brand, have a picture of a house with the brand inside of it. Use your imagination as a team and have fun with this part of the process.
Another task team will be to handle suggestions to toward reaching each goal. You could offer incentives for the person with the best suggestion for the month, or for the department that implements the company approved suggestions in an innovative and successful fashion.
Pick a department, or a new team to decide how suggestions will be turned in. Will there be suggestion boxes in break areas, or will people be able to email suggestions to a specific email account, like suggestions@companyname.com. Have this task team set a process for how often suggestions will be reviewed and the deciding factors on the approval and implementation of the chosen suggestions.
Another task team can begin making gratitude a daily part of the work environment. This might be thanking a particular department or person on staff for an exceptional job, or something even as simple as the new coffeemaker in the break area.
Keeping gratitude in focus helps everyone feel important and valued, and will promote better working conditions all around. Everyone should be encouraged to share things they are thankful for during the workday. There might be a bulletin board for people to post notes on, that others can read on breaks, or it can be emails to everyone. If you have a company newsletter, make sure and publish these items in that as well.
Now that the initial meetings are over, the company should have a pretty solid program in place. Future meetings can be for reviewing and adding new goals. There might be new events in place to celebrate goals once they are accomplished, or employee bonuses to give the staff something special to look forward to once they've successfully accomplished what was set for them to do.
Next it's time to break the Law of Attraction program into departments and individual staff members. Follow the same procedure that you followed to select and create the goals, posters, and any other processes for the company. Staff members should have his or her own goals poster at their workstation, or at least an individual goal's poster for each department.
Encourage each staff member to include what he or she wants from the goals they reach. For example, let each person add an item that they are hoping to get for the time and effort they are putting into help the company reach it's goals. They might be working towards a promotion, or it might be something personal, whatever it is, let it stand out on posters or fliers to help remind each employee what it is that they are ultimately working for.
Bringing the Law of Attraction into the workplace is sure to create a positive atmosphere where everyone will be able to work to higher potentials. Goals will be reached much more easily as everyone will be motivated with the positive energy this program will create.
