Come together at Afterwork Events<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some might think \u201cDo I really need another video call?\u201d \u2013 our answer is definitely \u2018yes\u2019! Afterwork events are a great way to deepen personal bonds within the team  as well as getting to know new colleagues who just joined forces. For example, Carnival is known to bring people of various backgrounds together, to sway to the music and just have fun together. Why not take it as an opportunity to bring each and everyone together at home, surprise them with joyous boxes full of candy & K\u00f6lsch, and an evening program not related to work? Or how about a virtual pub quiz to spark knowledge by waving it into an evening game? There are countless possibilities for afterwork events. Creativity is key!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brainstormings: New ideas and new stories<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Brainstormings are a fun and creative way not only to find new PR ideas and creative angles for clients, but also to get to know each other on a more personal level. Especially when you\u2019re in a brainstorming session with colleagues that aren\u2019t directly working with you, it\u2019s the perfect chance to bond more deeply. Often, the best conversations evolve from someone\u2019s ideas as well as funny warm-up exercises that encourage us to connect more personally. Pro tip: start your brainstormings with each one telling a real or fictional story about any object he or she finds in their room. This not only frees the mind from the current work routine, but is guaranteed to bring insightful stories and a lot of fun!

Hustle together, bond together <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Another way to spend time together outside the working context is doing sports together. Especially for starters and couch potatoes, sports of any kind are a great possibility to connect with each other  \u2013 no matter if it\u2019s done before or after work. Why not go for a run or do a little biking challenge? Or how about collective yoga sessions carried out virtually \u2013 you don’t even have to go outside! A big embarrassment? Well, maybe, but at least you get something to laugh and talk about the next few days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Find yourself (and others) in meditation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Who says meditation is a personal thing that you cannot share with others? Not us! Meditation gives oneself a break from the everyday working life, yes. Moreover, meditating in a group of people can strengthen a community, build trust and be a first step to develop deep connections with each other. Meditating means going deep, looking to the inside, not only for self exploration but also to make sense of one\u2019s outside. Putting things in perspective is what people learn during meditation. So, in conclusion, meditating together will help individuals find their place in a group of people, let loose of hard opinions and strengthen the community bond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Work together \u2013 Celebrate together<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Last but not least, what would be a better way to connect with each other than through celebrating together? We all made friends at parties and celebrations, or feel a special bond during summer splash at work or the annual christmas party. But there is more to celebrate. It\u2019s the CEOs birthday? Have a little virtual breakfast or lunch with carefully crafted lunch boxes. You don\u2019t have the motivation to cook alone? Turn on your camera and cook together with colleagues. Have wine tastings, meet up for lunch, make the smaller things in life a celebration. At the end of the day, it\u2019s all up to you to have a celebration.
