The offices at Costless have been pretty tight lately to fit all our staff
as we keep growing. With 3 more job postings to fill this month, we have plumb
run out of room. I've been looking for more office space for the past few months,
but my biggest dilemma has been not wanting to split up the staff, since our
family culture is so important. We needed to have extra offices that are within
walking distance from out main building.
I was relieved to find an additional 4000 sq ft in the next building beside
us. We jumped at the opportunity and immediately moved in. With so many bare
walls, we held a brain storming session and plastered the walls with planning
sheets and Post It notes. Boy, is it nice to have some free space to plan and
work.
As I said, culture is huge at Costless, so when I heard the
new space was being nicknamed the "dark side" by our staff, it kind of bothered
me. So, officially I announced the new space was to be forever known as...
"The Bright Side." A little positive suggestion seems to go a long way and
staff get it. Even the smallest grain of negativity can erode our Work Happy
positive work environment.
Can't wait to stick more Post-Its on the walls in out next
planning session!
Cheers
