🎉 Bringing in the New Year: A Corporate Party Tale 🎉 As the countdown to the New Year approaches, I couldn't help but reminisce about a hilariously memorable corporate bash that brought together work camaraderie and a touch of unexpected fun! Picture this: It was the annual New Year's corporate party, a time when colleagues traded suits for party attire and let loose, ready to bid adieu to the year gone by. As the evening unfolded, the dance floor beckoned, and what ensued was a mix of dazzling dance moves and, well, some not-so-coordinated attempts. Amidst the sea of enthusiastic colleagues dancing to the beats, there was the unforgettable sight of our CEO showing off his “unique” dance style, proving that leadership skills extend beyond the boardroom! Then came the highlight – the karaoke session! Who knew that our finance director had such a hidden talent for hitting those high notes? The entire room erupted in cheers and applause, creating an atmosphere that blended celebration with sheer amusement. Of course, no corporate party is complete without the photobooth shenanigans. Picture this: colleagues squeezing into the booth, donning goofy props, and capturing moments that would undoubtedly become legendary office lore. Amidst the laughter and merriment, it was a delightful reminder that beyond our titles and roles, we're a team that knows how to unwind and create unforgettable memories together. The New Year's corporate party was not just a celebration; it was a testament to the incredible bonds and the unique blend of personalities that make our workplace feel like a second family. What about you? Any hilarious memories or standout moments from your corporate New Year's party? Share your tales, and let's kick off the New Year with laughter and good vibes! 🥳🎊 #CorporatePartyChronicles #NewYearsCelebration #WorkplaceFun #TeamBonding

Woohoo, we’ve got a date for our next People people meet-up - a chance to catch up with familiar faces and make new connections! We’re going to do things a bit differently this time and keep it proper low-key. We also thought we’d see how an early morning meet would suit people, as we appreciate that evenings are precious…and who doesn’t like a cheeky midweek caffeine fix? Liz Dollin, Helen Monk and I will be at Café Coho - the Queens Road branch up by Brighton station - from 8am on Wednesday, July 24th until about 10am, and we’d love to see your face. We've reserved the back room which should be big enough, though if we suddenly get loads of interest we might have to re-think….this is where we usually meet up, so we thought we’d stick to our roots! 🌱 People people usually ends up being a small group of lovely folk chatting about the wonderful world of People…or anything else that springs to mind. If you work in a People, HR or L&D role and would like to pop along, please either comment on this post, or let one of us know via DM, so we can keep an eye on numbers - we decided not to faff with an Eventbrite link this time around! #community #people #event #connections #hrevent #hrevents #networking #networkingevent #hrnetworking #hrprofessionals #hrcommunity #hr #peopleprofessionals #learninganddevelopment #landd #hrbrighton #brightonandhove

The office Christmas party... 🎉🎄 While these events are a staple of corporate culture, intended to celebrate the year’s achievements and foster team spirit, not everyone is looking forward to them. If you’re feeling less than enthusiastic about the prospect of small talk and festive activities with colleagues, you’re not alone. It’s okay to feel this way, and it’s important to prioritise your comfort and well-being. If you’re considering a change of scenery or seeking new opportunities, Reed is currently expanding due to exciting growth plans. This could be the perfect time to explore new possibilities. So, if you’re not looking forward to the office Christmas party this year, it might be a sign to consider new beginnings. It could be the perfect gift to yourself—a fresh start and a new challenge. #OfficeChristmasParty #CareerOpportunities #ReedRecruitment #NewBeginnings

However, in the face of adversity, we chose a different path and decided to come together and host our own Christmas party. The venue was much smaller than usual which made the evening more intimate. Hosting this evening was crucial to us because I strongly believe joint celebrations among the staff are very important. Here is why: 🤝 𝓑𝓾𝓲𝓵𝓭𝓲𝓷𝓰 𝓢𝓽𝓻𝓸𝓷𝓰𝓮𝓻 𝓒𝓸𝓷𝓷𝓮𝓬𝓽𝓲𝓸𝓷𝓼: Beyond virtual meetings and emails, such celebrations provide a unique opportunity to connect on a personal level.

And it’s always a good idea to consider ways to make these events twice as good as in years past. Read here: https://lnkd.in/gDkAvdQe
