With its many virtues, it is not uncommon for sport to be associated with the business world. Indeed, more people are taking part in inter\u2011company sports competitions organised in Luxembourg. So how can sport contribute to the cohesion of your employees and strengthen your relationships with your clients?   <\/p>\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-101391050\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n<p><strong>To unite teams<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Where a company places hierarchical barriers, sport breaks them down. Indeed, in sport, it\u2019s no longer managers but teammates with different skills pushing the team towards a common goal. Thus, mutual support and kindness are essential to achieving collective performance. Here, the individual does not count\u2014what matters is the group. Incidentally, is it a coincidence that start\u2011ups have modelled themselves on this kind of organisation?     <\/p>\n<p><strong>To reverse roles<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In sporting practice, it is not uncommon for the person who takes the lead not to be a manager. This allows roles and relationships among colleagues to be transformed. <\/p>\n<p>Practising a sport together brings out traits of character in some individuals who are rather low\u2011profile in the workplace. Thus, sport is a true revealer of each person\u2019s personality. <\/p>\n<p><strong>To go beyond oneself<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sport also conveys a desire for challenge. When practicing a sport, the aim is to exceed oneself and to win. By cultivating this desire for challenge, sport contributes to the motivation of employees who maintain this mindset within the company. One thinks especially of salespeople\u2014but whatever the job, surpassing oneself is essential.   <\/p>\n<p><strong>A shared experience<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Organising company Olympic\u2011style games or a sports day gives employees the chance to share a moment together, creating shared memories. Moreover, if you mix the teams, the day becomes a platform for dialogue between employees who don\u2019t normally work together\u2014or who don\u2019t know each other yet. The larger the company, the more important it is to mix teams. <br>By creating challenges, genuine emulation and group dynamics will arise. It is certain that if this type of day is well organised, you will feel its benefits in the long run.     <\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-2123000984\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n<p><strong>To contribute to employee well\u2011being<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>By enabling your employees to let off steam and have a good time together, you can help improve their well\u2011being and reduce their stress. With the change in relationships that often occur in sporting practice, it is not uncommon for interpersonal communication in the office to improve and for team productivity to progress. <\/p>\n<p><strong>To strengthen relationships with clients<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Last but not least, by developing a positive group dynamics, sport is also an excellent lever to strengthen relationships with clients. Inviting your clients to take part in a sporting event creates a new informal communication platform outside of traditional business. Here, the secret is to mix the teams well and to choose fun activities that are accessible to everyone to appeal to your target.   <\/p>\n<p>We know that sport has many benefits. We see it at the individual level, but also at the group level. Within a company, it constitutes a real lever for engagement and performance which is still too little used. So, don\u2019t hesitate any longer and ride this 2020 trend!    <\/p>\n<p>Netty Thines <br>Communication Consultant <br>Mediation SA<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With this year\u2019s packed sports calendar\u2014from the European Football Championship to the Tokyo Olympic Games\u2014sport is front and centre. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1642,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10615","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
