Instead of hosting the same old ho-hum holiday party, here are some great ideas for celebrations your employees will look forward to.
�������� Be sensitive to the beliefs of all your employees.� Don't host a Christmas party. Plan a non-denominational event instead.� Select a theme like "Winter Wonderland," "Toy Soldiers" or a "Snowman Sock Hop."
�������� If possible, try to hold the party away from the office to make the occasion more festive.
�������� Consider hosting a family event instead of an employees-only party.
�������� At parties where liquor is served, make arrangements to safely transport your employees to their homes after the party.
�������� For a party-on-the move, charter a bus and take employees on a tour of the best decorated homes and businesses in your area.� Serve refreshments on board and have entertainment to keep the party lively in-between stops.
�������� Instead of hosting a typical event, invite employees and their families to attend a theatrical production such as "The Nutcracker" or a choral group performing holiday songs.
�������� In this season of sharing, make it easy for employees to give by setting up a collection of toys and non-perishable foods to be distributed to area charities.
�������� For interactive fun, rent out an ice skating rink for employees and their families to enjoy.
�������� To ensure the greatest appeal, get employees input into the holiday celebration by forming a committee to work on the event.
Make the holidays merry for your employees, and reap the rewards of their dedication and hard work throughout the year.
