In today’s fast-paced work environment, companies often invest heavily in complex strategies to improve performance, teamwork, and culture. But what if we told you that one simple habit—just 60 seconds long—could spark a powerful change?

At TDA India, we’ve worked with teams across industries. And time and time again, we’ve seen that it’s not always the grand plans that make the biggest difference. Sometimes, it’s the smallest idea that truly shifts the energy of a workplace.

Before diving into agendas, targets, and reports—take just one minute to let team members:

• Appreciate a colleague
• Celebrate a recent success (personal or professional)
• Thank someone for support
• Share a positive insight

hat’s it. No tools required. No extra cost. Just a moment of honest recognition.

🙌 Why It Works

✅ Boosts Morale

People feel valued, not just for their tasks, but for their contributions and character.

✅ Strengthens Communication

Appreciation builds bridges—across teams, departments, and hierarchies.

It sets a tone of respect, gratitude, and collaboration—all crucial for long-term growth.

Starting meetings on a positive note helps everyone stay grounded and focused.

🔧 How to Implement

Add it to the Agenda: Make it a fixed part of every team meeting.

Rotate Speakers: Give everyone a chance to lead or share.

Keep It Sincere: Just 1–2 sentences is enough.

Stay Consistent: Practice it regularly to see long-term results.

Companies often overlook culture when rushing toward KPIs. But culture is built in small moments—not just offsites or training days. This tiny practice can inspire loyalty, reduce stress, and even improve retention.

At TDA India, we train leaders and teams to become more self-aware, productive, and purpose-driven. We’ve seen this one-minute ritual reshape team dynamics within weeks—especially in high-stress environments.

“Sometimes the smallest step in the right direction ends up being the biggest step of your life.”
