Every once in a while, when we get a breather as the host of a big company picnic, we’re able to catch a glimpse of folks hanging out, playing together – and laughing. Not just any old laugh… the kind of laugh a kid makes when they fall for their favorite uncle’s pull-my-finger prank. We also get to see the look on people’s faces when they learn that the lady from purchasing is a ringer at miniature golf…who knew?!
What we don’t see for ourselves at Liberty Lake, our clients tell us about in emails and phone calls after every party.
The refrain we hear over and over again is that our clients see a positive uptick in their employees’ attitude after their party. They tell us that the company picnic idea ‘worked.’
In today’s workplace, every leader knows that salary and benefits attract people to work for their company. But it is the real-life positive vibes and bonds amongst employees that convince them to stay.
When leaders get to turn their screen-driven office into a people-first workplace, they see immediate positive results. Picnics give companies a real chance to help employees learn more about each other. It helps them form bonds and friendships, which makes the workplace a nicer place to come to everyday.
The experience-driven workplace is a big plus for younger professionals. More than their predecessors, young staffers today are looking for people they can rely on, from mentors, to someone they can talk to about a challenging project or boss.
Liberty Lake Picnics & Events, with our 60 shady acres, full-service catering menus, covered pavilions, dozens of activities including a rock-climbing wall and a lake fully stocked with paddle-boats, is the perfect place for your employees to put down their computer screens and have those experiences that only in-person fun can deliver.
HR professionals know that the number one job for making sure the company thrives is for the employees to feel and do well.
Contact us today to learn how a company picnic can deliver those real-life experiences that your employees are looking for and your organization deserves.
