Your business is only as successful as your staff. That’s why it’s crucial for your workers to feel appreciated. You can do this by making small gestures each day, as well as by holding a corporate event to show your gratitude for all their efforts. 

How a Corporate Event Can Benefit Your Business & Employees

1. Makes Staff Feel Appreciated

Appreciation and positive reinforcement go a long way. When staff put their all into a project, it can be disheartening when it seems their efforts have gone unnoticed—and this, in turn, can give them less motivation in the future. In addition to polls that find that more than half the workforce feels underappreciated, studies have also proven this has a negative impact on their work ethic and productivity and leads to expectations of more money for the work. An office party recognizes all the sacrifices your workers make throughout the year and gives them the inspiration to contribute further.

2. Allows Different Departments to Make Connections

If you have an expansive office, chances are you have staff in multiple departments. It can be tough for workers to connect under these conditions, especially during busy times of the year. A corporate gathering is ideal in this case, as it can help staff get together on a more personal level. Not only is this beneficial from a social perspective, but it can also make for more efficient work processes. 

3. Double-Duty

In addition, you can use a corporate event to get to know your employee’s families. By creating a more personal connection, you welcome them into the business’s “family,” which can increase ties of loyalty. This can also be a time to mingle with and acknowledge high-profile potential clients or business partners to cement the relationship.
