Fun and Games in the
Corporate World
With the increased amounts of stress and uncertainty that
employees have had to deal with in recent years, fun corporate retreats have
never been more important, especially because the adoption of hybrid and remote
working conditions has physically separated work teams.
Taking the time to have some fun with your team without the
pressures of work is incredibly beneficial. A work retreat encourages employees
to relax, have a good time and create strong interpersonal relationships that
will undoubtedly benefit them at work. Company culture is easiest to build when
people are together. Planning an exciting work retreat shows your employees how
much you appreciate them, which will, in turn, motivate them back in the
workplace.
We're seeing this trend of leaders realizing the importance
of fun in-person gatherings continuing to rise. It has been undeniable in the
work that we have done over the past few months, as well as in the dramatic
increase in inquiries about corporate parties and team-building events that we
have received for next year.
The Need for Fun Corporate Retreats
For those who have been at their jobs since before the
series of lockdowns that created a new work from home culture, the idea of never
meeting your team face-to-face might seem absurd. However, this was the case
for many of the attendees at most of the programs that we recently facilitated.
Some had only ever met their co-workers via meetings on Microsoft Teams, Google
Meets or WebEx!
We know that this is no way to develop lasting work
relationships, so we make in-person engagement the focal point of all the
events that we facilitate. As well as giving your employees the freedom to have
fun and get to know each other outside of work, we also offer opportunities to
work on team building and inspiring motivation.
Our facilities guarantee you the recreational activities and
casual unscheduled time that you need to do all of this. We plan fun pursuits
for everybody to enjoy and allow you the freedom to properly socialize.
Start with Team Building
Planned activities are a great way to start because they
encourage you to let go of any stress and give your all as a team. Our indoor
karting experience is the perfect place to start, encouraging people to try
something new and exciting. Friendly competition doesn't hurt either! After
that, your team can head over to some of our other activities, which include an
arcade, a laser tag arena and bowling lanes. It might surprise you just how important
team building is in recreational activities!
Move on to Unstructured Social Time
After exerting yourself with our thrilling activities,
you'll be able to relax and continue conversion over drinks and fresh food from
our Grill. time. Our bread is freshly-baked all day and we also cater to
different dietary requirements with our gluten-free pasta, bread and pizza
dough options. We even offer vegan cheese on our pizzas too.
Recognize the Value in Fun
Above all, we want you to enjoy your time with us here at
Andretti. We love seeing teams come together and have fun, away from their
desks and their virtual communications. When people genuinely engage with each
other, laughing, talking and sharing experiences informally, it translates into
healthy working relationships. Recognize the value in fun and make corporate
retreats a regular thing for your team. You'll notice the benefits instantly.
