Ask a Chief of Staff: Maximizing All Hands and Offsites to Improve the Employee Experience
“Attendance is down, and people don’t seem to be engaging in the chat or asking questions. Our offsite agendas keep getting longer to accommodate more people. Do you have any ideas for making our company events like All-Hands and Offsites more engaging?”
How to increase engagement at company events is a challenge we see often in the Chief of Staff community, and for good reason. Not only are events like All Hands and Offsites events the most expensive meeting your company has (calculate the cost of yours here), but these events are our culture on display, especially in a remote workplace.
The truth is: these events do more than share information. They affect morale, motivation, and engagement.
Join us on December 6th to learn practical tips to up-level your company events.
Please note, there will be a 100 person limit on this event. If you are unable to attend live, we will send a recording of the event afterwards!
We want to hear from you! What is your gathering challenge? (attendance, engagement, buy-in, hybrid, pre-communication, something else?) Submit your question when you register for Lindsey to answer during our event.
