Mindset characteristics such as positive perception, determination and resilience play a big role in career performance and achievement.

2. Organise team events / challenges; assists in developing a strong workplace culture and bond; where your employees feel more engaged.

3. Encouraging a suitable work-life balance – relaxation time stops your employees not become a ‘busy fool’ and helps increase performance.
