Activity Tuesday: The Gratitude Loop

Want to Transform Your Team Culture? Start with 15 Minutes.

We’ve all been there: a team that feels more like a collection of individuals than a cohesive unit. The work gets done, but the energy is flat. Communication is clunky. And even when things are going well, it feels like something is missing.

That something is often appreciation.

Genuine, specific, and intentional appreciation isn’t just a nice-to-have—it’s the fuel that powers a high-performing team. It builds trust, boosts morale, and transforms a group of coworkers into a truly connected force.

But how do you make it a habit? How do you move beyond the annual review or the occasional “good job” to create a culture where positive feedback is a natural, daily part of the rhythm?

I’ve discovered a powerful activity called The Gratitude Loop. In just 15 to 20 minutes, it can completely shift the energy of a team. It’s simple, it’s effective, and it’s designed to address some of the most common team challenges, from a lack of trust to poor communication.

And the best part? It’s adaptable for any team and any problem you’re trying to solve.

I’m sharing the full, detailed guide to The Gratitude Loop with my subscribers this week. It includes:

• A step-by-step procedure for both in-person and virtual teams.

• Specific adaptations to tackle common leadership problems like siloed thinking, low engagement, and poor conflict management.

• Facilitator notes and debrief questions to ensure the activity lands perfectly.
