Campus Advantage Offers Tips for Infusing Mojo Into Business

AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 3 /PRNewswire/ -- At a time when many firms are focused on survival, ignoring company culture and neglecting the importance of shared mission is a recipe for disaster.

Here are three simple ways to encourage the spirit of mojo to develop within your organization:

  • Institute an open door policy: Companies should look for ways to create safe environments where employees feel comfortable and are encouraged to share their opinions, concerns and goals.
  • Celebrate success: Recognizing individual and company milestones helps sustain team morale and contributes to a shared sense of progress in even these challenging economic conditions.
  • Promote balance: Establishing a workplace where employees are encouraged to balance work and life is one key to employee happiness. Simple steps such as encouraging company-endorsed volunteer programs and offering a slightly reduced summer schedule have minimal cost, but refresh and invigorate team spirit.

"I believe that mojo is one of this company's most valuable assets," said Mike Peter, president of Campus Advantage. "Becoming a successful organization requires understanding that companies thrive only when employees have a clear mission they are passionate about."

Campus Advantage practices what it preaches when it comes to corporate mojo, actively prioritizing and balancing the needs and interests of its customers, student residents and employees. Campus Advantage's mojo is multidimensional, encompassing bi-annual company parties, summer half-day Fridays and a once-a-month day of paid time off for philanthropic initiatives.
