Did you know February is official Adopt a Rescued Rabbit Month,  Return Shopping Carts to the Supermarket Month and Spunky Old Broads Month?  Every month has at least a few dozen themes attached to them, some serious, some, as you can see, not so much.

 

So why not adapt this idea for your workplace, and create one special theme per month that ties into a goal? Some themes could be wacky, some might help raise awareness for a good cause, while others might focus in on a specific value that your organization is trying to reinforce. It doesn't have to take a lot of work: a few e-mail messages, a few posters, a whiteboard display, some stickers or buttons, maybe a parade....okay, so maybe not a parade. Keep it simple, fun and use the theme to reinforce key messages or create new traditions in your workplace.

There's a new affliction that's now a "thing": Swiper's Finger!  Yes, it's the new tennis elbow. Apparently people are complaining of finger injuries from swiping their finger excessively across their I-phone screens. (I smell a lawsuit. . .)
