Ice breakers on loving your job
Here are some icebreaker questions and activities that can help spark conversations about loving your job:
Questions:
- What's the most rewarding part of your job?
- What's something you're passionate about in your work that you didn't know you'd be passionate about when you started?
- What's the best part of your day/week/month?
- What's something you're looking forward to accomplishing in your job in the next quarter/year?
- What's one thing you love about your work environment or company culture?
- What's the most creative or innovative project you've worked on recently?
- What's something you're proud of accomplishing in your job?
- What's the best advice you've received from a colleague or mentor?
- What's something you're excited to learn or develop in your job?
- What's the most fulfilling part of your job?
Activities:
- "Two Truths and a Lie": Each person shares two true statements about their job and one false statement. The others have to guess which one is the lie. This can lead to some fun and interesting conversations about what people love about their jobs.
- "Job Superlatives": Ask each person to come up with a superlative for their job, such as "Best part of the job" or "Most challenging project." Then, have each person explain their answer.
- "Job Bingo": Create bingo cards with different job-related tasks or activities (e.g. "attended a meeting," "worked on a team project," etc.). As people share what they love about their jobs, they mark off the corresponding squares. The first person to get five in a row wins.
- "Job Storytelling": Have each person share a brief story about a time when they felt particularly fulfilled or proud of their work. This can be a great way to hear about the positive aspects of people's jobs.
- "Job Gratitude Circle": Have each person share something they're grateful for about their job. This can be a great way to focus on the positive aspects of work and build a sense of community.
Remember to keep the tone light and fun, and encourage people to share as much or as little as they feel comfortable. The goal is to spark interesting conversations and build connections with your colleagues!
