Challenge Accepted!

We took holiday door decorating to another level at our TeamBonding Headquarters!

As we always look for new ways to engage our team, this one topped the charts – especially during the holiday season.

The Challenge: Each department had to work in teams to decorate their door, Santa will come to judge, lunch was provided, and the winning department got to choose a charity that TeamBonding will donate to!

The Rules:

• Each department was given $50

• Departments have one week to decorate their door

• Departments came up with their own unique, holiday theme

• Winning department chose a charity they want TeamBonding to donate to

The Planning:

Everyone was shocked at the creativity of all the doors! Sales, Production, Warehouse Team, Marketing – everyone had a blast strategizing what their door was going to look like. On judging day, we had doors themed as Candyland, Krampus, Hanukkah, Santa, Christmas Trees, and Fireplaces!

The Judging:

One of our Facilitators, Rich, came in dressed as Santa to come judge the doors. This turned into quite the event as all departments were excited to not only see one of our top Facilitators dressed as Santa, but to also present their creations!

The Winner:  The Marketing Department!

Marketing actually turned their door into an office scavenger hunt and 3 rounds of prizes. Getting everyone involved in a fun scavenger hunt increased the team’s interaction for the holiday season and put a smile on everyone’s face.

(Don’t worry – everyone received a prize) 

The Charitable Part:

Marketing wanted to contribute locally to a cause, so they chose the Helen Hansen Elementary School, in Stoughton, MA to donate to. Any donation to a school goes towards the children of our future.
