Make room for common areas

Remember that employees need to socialize. Plan a common area, that is cozy, within your office space. This is not to encourage bonding, and not office gossip.

Have an open door policy

Always be accessible to employees, both when away and at work. If feasible, eliminate doors from your cabin, or have your workstation positioned along with that of your employees.
