If you were to see a project falling behind or a co-worker having trouble staying focused, what would you do to motivate them?

I am on the same boat as everyone else in that it's pretty much impossible to find something to change here. The one thing I would try to change would be to rearrange the office somehow to utilize the space in between the center and marketing/membership. I think if we were moved closer together, we might be able to work closer together and collaborate better on certain projects. Other than that, SHM is perfect and I can't see changing a thing.

I have to agree with the general sentiment that there's not much to improve on around SHM.  The atmosphere is pleasant and friendly, the work is interesting, and the people are awesome.  The only thing that I could think of would be having a better place to meet as a whole.  Phillies is just too small, and having to squeeze everyone in there is extremely awkward.  Perhaps a screen setup similar to what's in Phillies for the copier area/open space behind Phillies would be good, as everyone could comfortably fit there.

I love a lot about working at SHM. Everyone is super friendly and seems to get along pretty well. I also like how there are a lot of planned activities and planned company interactions like all staff lunches and such. This really promotes the company to get to know each other and bond. I also think there is a great mission here that SHM works on with the Quality Improvement in Hospitals. I never really understood this until I started working here but now realize how important and great it really is. There isn't too much I would change about SHM. One of things I would maybe change would be the office layout. I would make a larger conference room so that the all staff meetings can be held comfortably within it. I would also maybe include bathrooms in the center of the office in order to encourage more office interaction and chance of running into employees from the other side of the office like membership and IT who I don't run into very often otherwise.

Sorry for the late entry I was gone and completely forgot!

What to Change?

I also think it is hard to think about what SHM should change. All I think about SHM is a warm welcoming work environment with everyone cares about each other, yet fun and delightful at the same time. So, it might be more about what I should change to be in this environment, not what to change about SHM itself. However, for some random reasons, I was thinking that it would be great if the SHM office is located in the center city. I feel like it might be more fun!

This is a really hard question. There are so many things that I love about SHM and I can't seem to figure out anything specific that I would want to improve. There has been such a great atmosphere that has been established here. I have found that everyone is able to work hard and be productive while also having fun. The one thing I guess I would want to improve is the amount of interaction between the departments. At least for me I feel like I don't know many of the people in the QI department as well as I do the people in the Marketing and Membership department. I think that this is because we are on other ends of the office. Other than that I can't think of anything else that needs to be improved.

If you could improve one aspect of SHM what would it be and why?
