Corporate Engagement

In today’s world of hybrid, virtual and in-person teams, the importance of building a strong corporate culture is critical to a business’s success.

As we learn how to work in new ways, it’s important that we keep the human element in our organizations. Corporate engagement strategies help unite teams and foster a sense of community. Having a strong sense of community is a high predictor that an employee will stay at an organization longer.

More than just money:
In general, corporate culture is a much more reliable predictor of industry-adjusted attrition than how employees assess their compensation.

Corporate Event Planning

Employee Engagement

Employee engagement can take many forms, including:

Building trust within teams
Improving communication from leadership
Uniting in a shared purpose
Hosting a town hall with Q&A’s
Creating recognition programs
Coordinating team-building exercises
Gathering input/feedback from employees

Investing in connecting with your team will pay off in long-term retention and corporate reputation.

KindCo specializes in the following areas of corporate employee engagement.

Corporate Events

Many organizations host annual corporate events, particularly in the holiday season, but there are many opportunities to connect with your employees throughout the calendar year.

From summer parties, corporate retreats, lunch and learns, wrap parties to year-end celebrations, a well-rounded corporate engagement strategy has multiple touch points throughout the year to help boost morale and strengthen team connectivity.

Areas of Expertise:

Developing an annual corporate event strategy for employee engagement
Planning, developing and execution of corporate events
Auditing existing corporate event strategies for efficiency and maximum impact

Team Meetings

Having a thoughtful approach to how teams come together can pay great dividends.

This can be accomplished in a range of ways:

Coordinating moments of connection through fun team lunches or activities
Organizing a team happy hour or after-work drinks to foster team connection
Encouraging idea sharing through brainstorms (“yes, and” approach)
Gathering insights, channelling focus and rallying teams through strategic planning

How we gather as teams impacts how employees feel and the effectiveness of our meetings. For example, having a quick team check-in at the beginning of the meeting to understand where people are can help manage expectations throughout the meeting. Taking the last 5-10 minutes to recap deliverables and the next steps as a group can help ensure everyone is on the same page. Small tweaks to existing processes and meetings can drive business efficiency.

Auditing core team meetings and recommendations for running an effective meeting
Planning and executing team events or meetings (from location sourcing, and logistics planning, through to engagement tactics)

Conferences are also a great opportunity to meet potential clients, partners, and suppliers and to recruit new hires.
