Hi Pavithra,

This is truly a good question.

Keeping a high energy level is indeed one of the hardest things to do for any HR or functional manager.

Besides the universal things, there are also many other things you could do and which you can find on the internet but it all depends which one you will use.

The first thing you should consider when choosing a measure is if it will fit your company culture and the culture of the country.

Taking from there you can see which measures you can use, but first do your job and analyze (for example through a survey) the level of energy your employees have and what they think will boost it.

If we talk about some universal things then it would be measures such as giving meaning to the job they do, reducing bureaucracy, giving a higher meaning or mission, good teamwork and interpersonal relations, recognizing and rewarding top performance etc...

Be encouraging to your employees and offer praise when appropriate. Thank employees for doing a good job and let them know that you value them. Should something go wrong or someone makes a mistake, don’t “punish” the person. Rather, talk to the person, teach the correct procedures, and offer encouragement and further teaching when needed. Remember that punishing people only makes things worse in that the employee may become angry and bitter and may want to sabotage their work to get back at the company.Remember that we are all humans working together to get through life. We need to care about each other to get the best results.

The physical layout of the office is important to maximizing productivity. People need enough room to work, the correct supplies/materials, and a comfortable and pleasant environment. Make sure all equipment is designed ergonomically so that it positively motivates workers by helping them with their needs to do the work.

first of all it starts from someone's own personality, leadership, engagement, updated knowledge, and a spirit of cooperation and team work. From my point of view, I have to be more energetic to drive energy in my team. I cannot simply demand the energy.
