Competition for competition\u2019s sake breeds mistrust, envy, and disassociation and is not conducive to a productive workplace. If you look at any elite sports team, you can see how healthy competition helps deliver results. The best squads of players have multiple players in each position, who train hard each week to impress their coaches, hoping that they will get selected to represent the team in the fixture at the weekend. The same mentality should be adopted in your company. If your employees spend each week trying to prove to you and their teammates how valuable they are and how much they can contribute, this inspires others to do the same.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-db784e6 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"db784e6\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-8c3f2bf\" data-id=\"8c3f2bf\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d42a050 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"d42a050\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-e87e343 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"e87e343\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-8050ae9\" data-id=\"8050ae9\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-21cb3c9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"21cb3c9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">Hire with competition in mind<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2686eb0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2686eb0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>When you\u2019re interviewing people for a role on your team, you should evaluate their personality traits and character, as well as their competencies and experience.

A great example of fun, incentive-based games that can be played in the workplace are initiatives like the employee of the month.
