Company Team Building Events Build Engagement: "Millennials Want To Be Part of Something"
Here’s a great article from the New York Times on the growing market for company team building events, off sites and other meetings where employees engage with each other and their managers. According to the article, as the job market tightens, businesses are seeing the need to keep younger employees engaged while getting top performance from them. Interestingly, team building off sites for regular old employees are on the rise while C-level and boardroom class retreats are down. Team Building with Taste’s culinary team building program–in either Atlanta or Dallas– is the perfect joint activity for both millennials and their more “seasoned” managers.
The article explores how retreats and other company offsite activities are a growing part of business for hotels. Led by tech companies, more employers are rewarding employees with activities to build a sense of purpose and engagement.
