To have friendly relations with the team, a manager can achieve it by using
open and effective communication. He should keep “open-door” for his employees to share their ideas, suggestions, and grievances/complaints etc. Occasionally/frequently manager should invite team to have get together for open discussion at best suitable place. This will develop trust among the team. Other hand if any conflicts exists it should be resolved in constructive way. Encourage the collaborative problem solving and decision making will enhance the healthy relationship between the manager and team.
Because everyone has their role to play in a company, it is important for everyone to get along – not just for the sake of the work environment, but for the sake of the company and its success, too. But how do you build relationships with co-workers to begin with? Here are five ways:
“When it comes to building relationships with your co-workers, be open and honest,” said Harry.
Harry said she likes to encourage people to be honest with their co-workers about having a social relationship and communicate that you want to get to know them better in order to work better as a team.
“Some people see work as a place to show up, do what they are supposed to do, and go home,” she said. “Others see it as a place to spend half of their waking life and an opportunity to build social relationships.”
Sometimes being open and honest about building a relationship with your co-worker won’t get you the response you are looking for. However, don’t completely write-off someone who isn’t interested in building a relationship.
“Even if they don’t want to engage and build a friendly or social relationship, you may end up excluding them or devaluing them, and that ends up creating a negative relationship and possibly hurting the company,” said Harry. “Instead, be sure to keep them in the communication loop and still offer assistance and support to work-related tasks.”
Some people might now know an appropriate way to build a good relationship with a fellow employee.
“I encourage individuals to take a look at the company’s culture and use that as one of the factors to inform their decision regarding if and how to engage co-workers outside of regular work activities,” said Harry.
If you’re unsure about inviting a co-worker to grab some dinner after work, or go out for a run over the weekend, why not start small and ask them out to lunch? You don’t have a whole lot to lose and, if you have a good time, it can become a regular thing and help you grow as co-workers.
For some, it can be a little awkward to get to know a complete stranger. However, Harry points out that at one point most of the people who we consider close friends were strangers to us at one point. This can provide some relief if you are feeling uneasy about befriending a co-worker you don’t know.
“Another way to make this a little easier is to focus on an interest you both have in common,” she said. “Perhaps you both own dogs, went to the same college, watch the same TV show, or have a grandchild in t-ball. This common interest can be a good foundation for a positive relationship.”
Though it might be easier to build a relationship with a co-worker who holds the same working status as you, it doesn’t mean you can’t try to build a relationship with a co-worker who outranks you – or even one you outrank – in the company.
“Mentor relationships in the workplace benefit both parties,” said Harry, “and the company gains when more employees are engaged and supporting each other.”
Harry also pointed out that ranks in companies do change. The person who was once in charge of you may not be if you’re someone who plans on growing within the company. If the ranks between co-workers are reversed, having already established a positive relationship makes the transition run more smoothly.
he can let them work not to be aggressive with them let them complete the team work to achieve success and to achieve their goals

if you mean activity as recreational time, there are many ways, office party, costume party, casual Monday, things that can break the ice, makes the employee feels that this is not just a workplace, it's place where you have fun and meet friends, as well, sending group of employees for training or team building, I noticed those who participate in activity keep in touch, sometimes even have contracts in other organizations went to the same training, many firms in Kuwait rent a fun-tent where it contain element of enjoying for employees and family, the positive influence that they belong to the organization to be proud off, and happy to work can improve the workforce positive way of thinking of improving their attitude towards other employees.
