Benefits of Hanging Out With Your Colleagues at a Bar

1. Understand the Views of Your Peers

Offices usually have a fast-paced atmosphere, and time to interact with your coworkers is often scarce. Tension can build up, especially if everyone is bottling up the stress. For some, offices are solely places for work and nothing else, and they have a difficult time opening up to their colleagues. 

Inviting your colleagues to casual social gatherings can encourage them to speak their minds about work-related concerns. You can gather their feedback, welcome their suggestions, and help them if necessary.

2. Build Rapport With New Colleagues

Getting team members on the same page takes a lot of effort, and having a new coworker can make this a lot more challenging. To create a safe and productive work environment, the newcomer needs to acclimate to the company's values and culture. Inviting new teammates to a bar helps everyone get to know each other better and exchange perspectives about their job.

3. Celebrate Progress & Successes

Projects are demanding, and they require focus and dedication from each team member. A small gathering to celebrate project milestones may help relieve tension and stress. It also allows you to socialize with your teammates and staffers from other departments.
