Potlucks have always been a simple
way for co-workers to get to know one another by sharing a meal.
If you’ve worked on a
team or in a group setting for even a short while you know that
the time will come when you’ll have to bring food for some
festive occasion to be shared by the entire group.
The
“Worker-On-The-Go” is always
looking for quick, easy and delectable dishes to bring to a
potluck. Once the sign-up sheet has been posted, you're faced
with an overwhelming decision—what can I bring that will be a
crowd-pleaser and create a "WOW" Factor?
Yet,
Office Potlucks are more than just
food and fun. They can be filled with hidden agendas, conflict
undercurrents, whining and complaining. When this happens, the
"WOW" Factor is lost and team
dynamics suffer severely.
