🌟 Tomorrow is National Take Back the Lunch Break Day! 🌟 It's the perfect opportunity to break away from our desks, recharge, and build stronger bonds with our coworkers. Here are 5 fun ideas to celebrate and spark office camaraderie: 🧺 Potluck Picnic: Organize a potluck lunch where everyone brings a dish to share. Enjoy a variety of flavors and spend quality time outdoors (or in the break room.!) For a fun twist on this classic, assign a theme. Super secret recipes? Rainbow foods for Pride? Yes please! 🚶Team Lunch Field Trip: Take a group walk to a nearby park or café. A change of scenery and some fresh air can do wonders for creativity and team spirit. If you work remotely, video call with coworkers from that restaurant you've been meaning to try. (And don't forget to snap a pic of your dish to share with the team!) 🎲 Eat and Compete: Host a quick and fun office game session. Think trivia, board games, or even a mini scavenger hunt. Sneak bites between rolls of the dice. 📖 Lunch & Learn: Invite a guest speaker or watch a TED Talk together. It's an excellent way to learn something new while enjoying a meal with colleagues. Bonus bonding points if your coworkers volunteer to lead a lunch lecture on an unexpected topic they're an expert in. A quick ASL lesson, a tour around a cultural neighborhood, or a riveting history of Opera feuds? Get to know the world and your team better. 🥑 Guac Off: Challenge your coworkers to an epic, tasty, high-stakes guacamole-making competition. Grab your avocados and chips and PIT teams against each other to whip up some next-level dip. (Invite us, and our hosts can handle everything!) Let's take this opportunity to put work down, pick our forks up, and enjoy some quality time together. Happy National Take Back the Lunch Break Day! 🍽️🌳✨ Check out the comments for more ideas! #TakeBackLunch #OfficeCamaraderie #TeamBuilding #WorkLifeBalance #LunchBreak

Picture this: The week of your online social, team members receive a gourmet s'mores kit in the mail. Your people join a secure video meeting, light the tea light candles in their kits, and roast marshmallows next to their keyboards. A cheerful host then leads the group in a series of interactive camp games that help to build camaraderie in your remote teams. Curious about just what that looks like? Were hosting a complimentary demo of this fan-favorite event on June 12th 2024. Click through to secure your spot and receive your meeting link to attend.
