There are dozens of reasons why team-building events are so popular for creating a positive company culture, from employees on the ground to the upper echelons of management and stockholders. They’re fun, provide valuable information about the people with which individuals work, and improves the overall perception of the company.

Corporate events run the gamut in Florida from escape rooms and virtual activities to in-person beach-based endeavors and fun competitions.

Corporate events in South Florida can be held inside or outdoors at any time of the year due to the favorable climate. The events can be luxurious and elegant or conducted in a more informal environment.

There are numerous businesses that cater to corporate events. Companies can book an event that includes inflatable games and competitions that encompasses water slides, obstacle courses, and mechanical rides to electronic-based activities, carnival games, interactive sports, and life-sized yard games.

One of the most effective ways to foster a positive company culture is through enjoyable team building events. People learn and retain lessons best when it involves an element of fun. Companies that participate in team-building activities and events typically see a 20 percent increase in profitability, a 59 percent reduction in turnover, and a 41 percent reduction in absenteeism.

Corporate culture encompasses much more than profitability. It’s a way to gauge how individuals within the company structure work together and an excellent way to foster inclusion and diversity. The best way to accomplish those goals is through events and activities that enable attendees to divest themselves of their business persona to have some fun time.

Top 7 Must-Haves when Planning an Outdoor Party

 

Parties play an essential role in celebrating events ranging from employee appreciation days and retirements to weddings. However, planning the event can be extremely stressful as individuals attempt to ensure every detail is correct – from food to entertainment. There are some essentials for any gathering that are non-negotiable and must-haves for a successful party – especially in Florida.

  1. Food

The quickest way to ruin a party is for guests to leave the event hungry. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a backyard barbecue or a sophisticated soiree. Food is viewed universally as a demonstration of love and regard.

Professionals caterers will know exactly how much food to prepare for the number of guests to ensure everyone is well-fed. They can also accommodate special dietary needs. Caterers will provide table service, glassware and servers, along with beverages, a bartender, and even bouncers if required.

  1. Seating

There should be a chair for every guest, including any children in attendance. They should also be easy to move, as there will always be groups of people rearranging chairs to sit together to converse.

  1. Tables

Guests should never be scrunched up together, which means sufficient tables so they can spread out a little for elbow room. It’s especially important if children will be attending.

  1. Tents

Florida can get very hot and humid during summer months. A tent provides convenient shade from the heat. It’s particularly important for older individuals. Portable air conditioning units are available to provide cooling inside tents. A tent also offers a means of expanding available space and provides shelter in the event of unforeseen rain.

  1. Entertainment

The type of entertainment selected will depend largely on the guest list. Adults enjoy dancing so a band or DJ, along with a portable dance floor, is ideal. If the party is for children, there are any number of inflatable games and activities that can be rented. Don’t discount the value of inflatables for adult parties, either.

  1. Decorations

The addition of appropriate decorations, whether it’s special lighting, banners or table centerpieces, are an essential element that will set the mood and tone of the party. They also provide an attractive backdrop for people to take photos as mementos of the event.

  1. Party Planner

A party planner is an excellent resource. They can help individuals stay within any budget and they have connections with entertainers, venues, caterers and other professionals. Party planners will relieve the stress and ensure a party for any occasion is a complete success.

South Florida Winter is Perfect for your Outdoor Corporate Event

You don’t have to wait until the hot and humid days of summer to hold your corporate event. South Florida’s mild winter climate and temperatures are ideal for outdoor winter events. The winter months are also a great time to spread some cheer and enthusiasm during the early months of the year.

One of the advantages of holding your corporate event in Florida is obviously the mild weather. Florida is a popular getaway for anyone in northern states that want a break from the snow and South Florida is equally applicable for companies that want to reward staff with a relaxing interlude. The prospect of escaping the cold and coming to a warm climate is an incentive that will boost attendance.

Temperatures typically hover in the 70s from December through February. The state also offers a variety of amusements and recreational activities to enjoy when the business portion of the event are finished for the day. Attendees can golf to their heart’s content, go yachting, participate in a drive-through safari, or visit one of the many museums.

No matter what type of outdoor corporate event you’re planning, it will be easy to accommodate any need and any number of people. There are dozens of venues to conduct outdoor team-building events, hold an executive retreat, or launch a new product.

There’s no reason you can’t combine business and pleasure at your corporate event and it’s easy to do in South Florida. Even if the northern part of the state has less than optimal temperatures, South Florida will still be warm enough to conduct any corporate event outdoors in complete comfort.

There’s no shortage of luxury accommodations, transportation options, international travel hubs, and there’s a thriving nightlife for attendees to enjoy when the work is done. If you’re unsure where to hold your corporate event this year – wonder no longer. South Florida beckons.

Reward your Employees with a Special Event

Smart business owners know the value of showing their appreciation to employees. It fosters a positive work environment while providing an important tool for fostering diversity and inclusion. Most employers settle for a group dinner out, a catered event in the office during work hours, or gift cards. To truly demonstrate appreciation for employee dedication and productivity, plan a special event that will live on in memory.

People that spend a lot of time working indoors appreciate the opportunity to enjoy outdoor time and fortunately, outdoor events can be held any time of the year in South Florida. If an indoor event is planned, it needs to be something that has a significant fun factor. The range of potential events is almost endless, from scavenger hunts and escape rooms to comedy club outings and made-to-order inflatable playgrounds for adults.

Special events boost employee morale and individuals that feel appreciated are more productive. Appreciation events are also an opportunity for companies to support other local businesses. One idea is to close up shop for the day and take employees on an epic adventure – and be sure to have a photographer on hand to record the event or rent a photo booth for the occasion.

Above all else, an employee recognition event must be fun. When planning an outdoor event, consider renting inflatables to create any combination of environments desired. Companies can arrange for games and activities for a carnival atmosphere or choose a range of electronic amusements and interactive games.

To beat the heat, there are a number of water slides and similar inflatables available to emulate a water park. For an exciting day of competitions, inflatables of life-size lawn games are available, along with obstacle courses and mechanical rides. The only problems companies will encounter when planning their employee appreciation event will be selecting a theme and choosing among the wide range of inflatables to include.
