Pre-Shift Workout for Hotel Employees, Tibetan Style
Chris · August 31, 2007
While hotel employees across North America are often ‘lucky’ to get a pre-shift departmental meeting, these employees at a property in Lhasa, Tibet gather for daily calisthenics first thing in the morning.
The image is terrific (hardly military-esque precision!), but what I really like is that multiple departments are participating. Not sure who is minding the store during this time (supervisors?), but still--a great way to build some camaraderie among colleagues. Even if the staff hate participating, at least they can groan together as a unit.
I don’t think we’re quite ready for team calisthenics, but we do need to be watching for innovative ways to facilitate better health, work-life balance and team building in the stressed-out hotel industry.
