TRY THIS:
Music band
Ask the musically talented employees to put together a show for the company which they can perform on talent night, during lunch hours, or on any other such relevant occasion.
Board game night
Scrabble, carom, cards, monopoly.
Karaoke/’jam’ Sessions
Music evening for the singers, musically talented or otherwise.
Dinner
Education courses/diplomas
Company sponsored part-time MBA’s / Engineering etc. for higher learning & career growth.
Surprise lunches
Occasionally hire a live band, or decorate the cafeteria to keep things exciting and new, organise a surprise catering crew outdoors on certain festivals or important days.
Casual Mondays’
Minimise the Monday blues by declaring it a ‘casual’ dress day.
Theme Parties
Office parties with different dress/ ambience/ themes (e.g. cowboy, 60/ 70’s, disco theme, etc.).
Workplace decorations
Put up cricket posters during cricket season/ football during the world cup/ tennis, pink balloons for Women’s Day, a surprise red rose on the desk of each employee for Valentines Day, etc.
Fun dress codes
Ethnic wear, all-pink-day for girls/ blue for boys, all in company logo T-shirts (this can even be a nice way to advertise for your company free of cost!), all in something with stripes, bright colours, etc.
