Recognizing accomplishments in the workplace can help build morale and improve the camaraderie of your teams. One easy way to celebrate and foster team spirit is by hosting a team lunch. According to a Cornell University study, coworkers that eat together perform better together. It’s not only an opportunity to celebrate, but also to get to know new hires, create companionship, and improve job performance. Here are some great tips for hosting a successful team lunch.
Get Creative
A team lunch is a great excuse to get creative. Start by choosing a theme and setting. Whether you’re planning a picnic, barbecue, or potluck, party rentals can really help to help bring a theme to life while sticking to a budget. Don’t be afraid to think outside the box. Consider fun touches like an Oprah-style surprise taped under everyone’s chairs!
Go the Extra Mile
No matter the workplace, a celebration calls for something outside of the ordinary. Help team members feel extra appreciated by renting tables and seating for the occasion. Create an upscale atmosphere with table linens. Ordering a few simple centerpieces or balloons can also make a big impact.
Inspire
A team lunch is also a beneficial time to inform and inspire the group in a more relaxed setting. Rent a podium and public address system for either the team leader or even a guest speaker. Use the time together not only to celebrate wins, but to prepare the team for future challenges as well.
