BigShinyThing

Last year HHCL United’s founder and creative director Steve Henry helped write a book called Change the World for a Fiver: We Are What We Do

It was full of helpful suggestions of how to save the planet in small ways.

This year he’s planning to contribute to a second book - this time about making the workplace a happier and smarter place. The brief is this: what would make the best ever working environment?

We need your help with suggestions for a poster that would come with the book - basically a list of 500 suggestions to make the working environment a better place - and the ones that are featured will be attributed to the person who suggested them.

Here’s what we’ve come up with so far:

  • talk to temps
  • know the names of your office cleaners
  • always take a lunch break
  • use both sides of the paper when photocopying
  • don’t pee in the lift

Pls send your suggestions to anne-fay@bigshinything.com and many thanks!
