Some employers choose to ditch the idea of corporate parties because it’s not the easiest task to pull off. Corporate parties can also be such a hassle for the employees themselves because it has become a drudgery for them (the previous years’ parties were boring, or they felt more like extra work).
However, companies who see these parties as an event for coming together as
a team benefit from the positive effects of it.
Below are 5 reasons why you should not give up on that festive corporate party just yet.
Reason #1
It’s a time to celebrate! It’s been a pretty stressful year. Why not give your team something to look forward to? Corporate parties or team building events – especially during the year-end – can revive the morale of your most
hard working employees. The break is also a good thing for you. These corporate parties or team building events can spell the difference between employees who feel like they are mere machines, and motivated team players.
Reason #2
It allows employers to thank hard workers personally. Companies can choose to hold small but memorable end-of-the-year parties or team building events as a token of their gratitude for all of the hard work done by their
employees without compromising the size of their performance bonuses.
Reason #3
It allows employees to interact with the bosses. Some employees look forward to corporate parties or team building events year-round because it’s the only time they can really interact with the bosses in a more relaxed
setup. They don’t need to worry about how well they present an idea because they are not reporting or are not trying to sell an idea. Some of these employees only interact with the higher ranking bosses during parties
because at work, they are not required to talk to these executives directly. For some employees, these five-minute opportunities to make themselves more visible can boost their morale.
Reason #4
It fosters camaraderie. It’s easier to see yourself as a team when you’re enjoying yourselves than when you’re in a stressful situation. At work, employees may actually find themselves on edge, competing and sometimes even fighting with each other. Stressful situations can create conflicts among employees. A more relaxed event, like
an office party, can help them patch things up, or at least interact on friendlier terms.
Reason #5
It boosts employees morale. Corporate parties or team building events are great venues for bringing the team into the next year because, when planned and executed well, these parties can rejuvenate the team spirit of your
employees. This will leave them feeling extremely motivated. They can produce optimal work for your company, and they can see their teammates in a different, more positive light.
