With the holidays just around the corner, we thought it was a great idea to hit you with a reason as to how holiday corporates expand on your corporate culture. You may be asking: “What even is corporate culture?” Corporate culture is a series of beliefs and values that shape how employees interact and work within an organization. Booking an escape room for your team holiday event naturally enhances your corporate culture because escape rooms allow your employees to put into action your corporate values while creating a sense of belonging, and of course making your team feel appreciated! Let’s dive in!
Values
We totally understand that every business has different corporate values. By booking an escape room for your holiday party, it will allow your organization’s values to be put into action. Values like teamwork, problem solving, and innovation can be used by your employees to succeed when playing an escape room. This is an opportunity to show your employees just how important company values are, and for your team to connect and work even better together in the future. If your team can escape an underwater city together, or maybe save the world from a criminal organization, there’s no limit to what a team can accomplish together under the unity that your corporate values build.
Creates belonging
Even with the pandemic mostly behind us, that time spent in home office may have left a bit of a hole in team dynamics. While most people by now have become re-accustomed to an in-office or even hybrid lifestyle, the pandemic may have left behind a sense of alienation. Creating a team-building event outside of the office helps employees who may still feel a bit left behind to find their place and purpose within their coworkers–and escape rooms are a perfect way to build that confidence! What better way to create a sense of belonging and to find out how holiday corporates expand on your corporate culture than fun and laughter in a setting where your employees still feel like they’re working together?
Increases appreciation
Maybe this is an obvious point, but feeling appreciated as an employee is a huge motivator, and a night of fun and puzzle solving as a holiday event can do just that. Escape rooms are a more involved and thrilling choice than a traditional holiday party because they allow your employees to show off skills that they might not normally get a chance to. Plus, you’ll absolutely learn more about each other while completing the room’s objectives. An escape room will bring your employees together in a way that creates a tighter knit community within your organization. Overall, nothing feels better than your coworkers and managers appreciating what you bring to the table, and being able to showcase those skills outside of the workplace is perfect for that!
Everyone wants to feel like they belong and are appreciated, and having fun at your next corporate event while engaging with corporate values is a great way to facilitate that. Escape rooms use universal skills which make them the perfect way to build your corporate culture through action.
The bottom line is, escape rooms bring your employees together in an environment that encourages mutual understanding of each other, and ensures your team is growing happy and healthy within the corporate environment that you design!
