Random Acts of Caring/Kindness
Managers and HR Pros.
Do you ever arrive at work with fresh bagels or muffins for your team/company “just because”?
Have you ever surprised a hard-working team at 2:00 with tickets to a movie for all?
Perhaps you have just surprised them with a “It’s 2 pm, time to go home today. Thanks for all your amazing work.”
As a manager, have you shared 24/7 duties with staff during the holidays so they can have family time too?
As an HR person, do you wander the office and talk to people? Ask questions, learn about what they do, what they want? (In a friendly way?)
Do you sometimes do things just to make someone’s day a little brighter?

On my last job, I really thought of giving gifts to everyone. Our company was in a tight budget and I was about to leave. What I did was I went to the SHRM Conference and pick up three bags of freebies for my now ex co-workers. When they come in, they felt relieved and happy for once after a long’s day work and that put a smile in my face.
