Whether you run a small business, a large office or an in-between factory floor, inspiring and motivating your workforce is necessary for continued morale. Citing MIT’s Douglas McGregor, the Wall Street Journal suggests that people work to gain security and to commit to objectives that they then seek to fulfill with “self-direction and self-control.” Human resources experts have relied on these suggestions for decades and found that encouraging imagination and creativity were the keys to superior worker contributions.
How can you translate this information into a workable solution for your company? With the proper procedures and incentive programs in place, the look and feel of the workplace still needs a bit of help. Framed motivational sayings adorn the walls of break rooms by the hundreds, but do they really help? Phoenix wall murals for office environments are perhaps a better solution. Why hide your commitment to teamwork and excellence at the workplace in the break room when you look for it out on the sales floor?
- Sports teams. Phoenix is home to the Arizona Diamondbacks. The D-Backs were the home of Luis Gonzalez. Turning his likeness into a wall-sized mural with the retired number 20 and a shot of his 2001 World Series game-winning play are suitable for any office.
- Cultural icons. The Musical Instrument Museum is local to Phoenix residents and harmonizes displays of ethnic musical items from across the globe. Take some photos of the more exotic instruments as well as mechanical music pieces and then let the graphic experts at Spotlight Signs and Imaging Solutions turn these photos into a wall mural emphasizing the harmony that comes from a collection of so many different instruments. This is an ideal mural for a conference room or other co-working space.
Wall graphics for medical offices and storefronts occupied by service providers should feature calming scenery. Since clients and employees are in close contact, the graphics that inspire the workforce also affect the clients. Images of the Lowell Observatory or Sedona area shots are excellent options. Pictures from the Petrified Forest or the Painted Desert visually increase the space of an otherwise small storefront or office, which greatly enhances the overall wellbeing of workers.
Pick calming digital wallpaper for areas where workers meet. In the break room, photos of the Phoenix Mountain Preserve would be soothing. Pictures of the Desert Botanical Garden bring in the sunshine and landscape of nearby areas. Agaves and mesquites feature calming green tones that help workers to relax. When combined with motivational decals and lettering, you have the opportunity to not only inspire your workers but also help them to approach work with a rested mindset.
