As we approach the final stretch of 2024 (🤯) event planning companies (like us) and businesses (like our awesome clients) are gearing up for an unforgettable finish to a remarkable year.Â
If you're in charge of planning corporate team building activities or seeking the expertise of event management companies, now is the time to think big and bold for how you can end the year with a bang!Â
And if you’re wondering what exactly we mean by “with a bang”...we’re talking about closing the year out with:Â
- Team members who feel united, appreciated, and successful
-
Increased productivity from team members (and, ahem, a stronger bottom line to boot)!Â
- Amped up company moraleÂ
- A cohesive organizational mission and vision
-
Clarity on where you’ve been and where you’re headedÂ
-
Stronger leaders (because every position on your team is a leader in some way)!Â
…and really just an overall sense of drive, purpose, and precision heading into 2025.Â
Oh, we should definitely mention that these events are by no means random, and by all means SPECIFIC experiences that we’ve helped clients create.
From large corporate events to the most intimate team building moments, these 3 events for the rest of 2024 were chosen on purpose with a purpose.Â
So here we go! Below are three unmissable experiences that will ensure your 2024 ends on a high note.Â
AWARDS SHOW:
Alright, before you have flashbacks of high school superlatives and dismiss this immediately, hear us out!Â
We recently planned and hosted a quarterly awards show with a client and let’s just say, it was F-I-R-E. Awards shows are a hit for many reasons, mainly because they directly celebrate team member and/or company-wide achievements, they can be serious and/or humorous, and they definitely boost morale and motivation making them a GREAT option for any time of the year.Â
The client we mentioned above hosts a quarterly awards show, and with most of their team being remote, it’s an awesome opportunity for them to connect virtually with people across the globe. Cool, right?
If you’re curious about what “awards” you would even give out or wondering what an awards show would feel like for your team (the options are endless and we can cultivate it specific to your needs/culture) - click here and we’ll be happy to give you a bit more insight!
TEAM BUILDING:Â
Here’s the tea: By Q3, employees might be experiencing mid-year fatigue. Team building activities can help strengthen relationships and improve communication among team members, creating a more collaborative work environment. Team building events are also an opportunity for everyone (including you) to recharge – but the key is to invite a trusted partner to help facilitate so that you really can be involved in participation (rather than planning all the details and executing on them).Â
From fun icebreaker games to expert-led sessions on growth and development, the options for team building are endless, and their impact will leave a resounding effect!Â
YEAR END PARTY:Â
If you know us, you know we love a good holiday party. Here’s why → holiday parties (or year end celebrations) allow you to end the year on a high note, celebrating accomplishments, boosting morale, and strengthening team bonds.Â
Planning a year end party doesn’t have to be complicated, and can range from a catered meal to a full-on awards ceremony to celebrate specific team members and have a grand ol’ time. Looking for virtual holiday party ideas for work or ways to celebrate with a team that works remotely? We’ve got you covered on that, too.
Annnnd, before you blow this one off thinking that holiday parties really don’t matter that much, check out this blog to hear our hot take on the topic! Spoiler alert: planning a holiday party can be one of the BEST decisions you make all year.Â
Even if you haven’t had a SINGLE event so far this year, it’s NOT too late to capitalize on the power of partnering with event planning companies. In fact, joining forces with experienced event planning companies like Elevate can ensure these events are well-organized and memorable, leaving a lasting positive impact on your employees.Â
