Regular employee staff meetings are an important part of effective employee communication. We advise clients all the time to communicate with employees more regularly. Normally, the response we get is that “I talk to my employees every day – I’m already communicating!”
While you may be talking to employees every day, we find that most managers are focused on very task-specific topics or problems when they talk to employees. We want to encourage you to make a resolution to have regular staff meetings with employees to improve employee communication.
Getting in the habit of conducting regular staff meetings will help achieve many purposes including:
- To reinforce the company’s vision, values and mission
- To inform and update employees
- To share successes, challenges and updates
- To brainstorm ideas and to gather employee feedback
- To gather all employees together who otherwise would not have an opportunity to meet
- To share important information or news with staff before it goes public
- To provide training to employees
- To ensure a message is conveyed consistently to all employees at the same time.
A positive employee staff meeting can boost morale, help lower staff stress and frustration, and encourage new and innovative ideas. Though it may be difficult at first to get into the habit of conducting regular staff meetings, ensuring that they occur regularly and on a consistent basis will lead to better-informed and more productive employees.
