Sometimes we all need a party. It may be a birthday, a wedding, a graduation or just an amicable meeting. No matter what you want to celebrate, you always need to have a plan: nvitations, food, music, place and all other things you need to have a perfect party.
Firstly, you should pick a place. Before you do this, you should think whether you are going to have a big event or a little get together. If you plan to invite a few guests, you can organize a party at home or in a café or a small restaurant. Otherwise, you may book the whole restaurant or night club for a big party.
Secondly, you should determine a date and time of your party. You should choose the day when all your guests are free. You may also ask them about the most suitable date. After you decide, you may send invitations or inform the guests by the phone. If you make invitations by yourself, you can show all your creativity and make them look like work of art.
After that you may consider a theme. Nowadays, theme parties are very popular. Such events are more interesting and give an opportunity to participate in organization for every guest. The guests may buy or make special costumes, masks and accessories. It may be any theme you like: retro, marine, Hollywood, Halloween, Christmas and others.

Target
Typically, a corporate event is held to increase motivation, create emotional capital and build employee loyalty.
To increase motivation, the employee must feel good: creative, skillful and in demand. The corporate event starts a chain reaction: the employee did something good at the corporate party → felt cool → again shows his best side, but already in a working environment. After a good corporate party, employees are emotionally turned on and want new achievements at work.
The corporate starts a chain reaction
Emotional capital in a simplified form, these are emotions, beliefs and experiences that help to cope with difficulties at work. This is a margin of safety, thanks to which the employee does more than is provided for in the instructions - for example, temporarily takes on additional responsibilities. Without emotional capital, an employee folds in any incomprehensible situation. A well-organized corporate party creates the necessary margin of safety.
Loyalty helps the employee not to go to competitors for a higher salary. “Yes, they will pay more there, but here they appreciate me, here I am needed.” At a good corporate party, an employee should feel his value.
More exotic corporate goals- evaluate employees, identify future leaders, shake up the team. You can help employees formulate new professional goals. You can resolve the emerging conflict, lay the foundation for the development of new skills. A good event company helps to realize all these tasks. Unfortunately, few people know that this is possible. Now you know.
A good corporate party can make you fall in love with a company, change your attitude to work, infect people with new ideas; evoke a sense of belonging to a big and important cause. And a couple of times a year there is a great reason for this. It would be foolish to exchange all these opportunities for a banal banquet.
Chaos
Chaos begins when the holiday has no unifying idea and no one controls it. At a corporate party for 20 people, the boss or one of the colleagues will manage. This is a cozy event for a close company. You can add a cultural program: some agencies and venues are able to organize small events.
A good idea for a small event is to invite everyone to an unusual place: to a cooking class, to an art workshop or to nature. But remember that cooking dinner or painting a picture is not a goal, but only a tool. Formulate for yourself why you will organize this holiday, and let the organizer come up with an interesting content for your purpose.
When you are 100-200-500 people, an organizer is a must. Large corporate events are whole festivals: they rent a large venue, create "stations": shooting galleries, buffets, trampolines, labyrinths, creative workshops. The organizers think over how the employees will pass these stations, what will motivate them. Plots are created, participants are divided into teams, game and role-playing mechanics are invented. From the outside, it seems that it’s just a festival in front of you, but thanks to a well-thought-out structure, a person is interested in this festival.
Corporate regatta for a construction company
It is important that all this be subordinated to the goal: not just to put trampolines and soap factories in an open field, but to organize them in such a way that employees receive the necessary emotional experience. Thinking it through is the job of the organizers. Without structure, the celebration will turn into chaos.
Formalism
Formalism is when neither the management, nor the organizers, nor the employees understand why they need this corporate party. This happens in international network companies. From the "center" they give the command to organize a corporate party to develop team values. But what this means, why they need team values and how to develop them, no one knows. And the tortured creativity begins:
Let's do a tug of war, shall we? It's a team game
- Yes, but we need to implement our values! Let's all pull the rope, but at the same time sing the anthem of our company?
- Great idea! Just need to compose an anthem
- And let our employees compose it, and so that they use the words "team", "work", "team" and "Moskkrashimprommash-3000"!
- Super! And then we will hold a creative competition "What is teamwork for me ..."
When there is no purpose and values, the holiday turns into a farce. Employees, as it were, play all these tug-of-wars, and then in the smoking room they say, “Well, nonsense.” Money wasted.
If your company does not have goals and values, you do not need to force yourself to be creative. Order food, organize a movie screening or have a disco. Let people just rest.
Creation
Creativity is a universal component of a corporate event. Acting out a skit, making artistic soap, molding a pie, taking part in a photo session, filming a video clip, demonstrating superhero abilities - all this is safe, fun, versatile and, with the right approach, helps to solve most personnel tasks.
The head of the company tries on the image of a hero
Employees love creativity because creativity makes you feel good, smart and skilled. It's great when creativity is woven into the overall plot:
- you are not just folding origami, but making part of a large art object that will be exhibited in the lobby of the central office;
- you do not just dress up in a superhero costume, but get a secret task in which you need to show superpowers;
- you are not just making a pie, but preparing treats for children from the orphanage.
Socially significant initiatives work well, for example, subbotniks. Employees spend several hours planting trees, beautifying part of the park, or assembling birdhouses. All this is organized, with music, refreshments and photographs. Employees feel that they are doing something useful and important. Being involved in something bigger is a powerful motivator.
Assembly of birdhouses in the eco-section of the Seasons design clean-up event (organized by the Chili Peppers for Volkswagen)
Man tends to love what he has created. Therefore, employees will take pictures next to their birdhouses, show photos to friends, be proud of themselves and their company. This is a good effect, even if you did not originally plan it.
Novelty
Like everything in the world, there is a fashion for corporate parties. In the early 2000s, everyone was crazy about soap making and dance classes. Now in Moscow they prefer interactive quests using smartphones, tablets and augmented reality. In 2 years there will be something new in fashion. The job of an event company is precisely to find and come up with new ideas and connect them with the goals of the companies.
The most boring corporate parties are obtained by client briefs - when the responsible employee unilaterally comes up with what kind of entertainment to order and offers the agencies to set the lowest price. Such corporate events are a celebration of banality and a meager budget.
Tip: even if you have a small budget, contact the event studio for at least free advice. With due perseverance, many ideas can be implemented on their own, but it is better to take the ideas themselves from those who are professionally involved in this.
Interesting corporate parties are obtained when a client comes to the agency with a clearly conscious goal, and they jointly figure out how to realize this goal.
The bank has taken a leading position thanks to new products and technologies. But lately he has started to lose ground, because over the past year he has not created a single breakthrough idea. The personnel audit showed that employees feel like market leaders and rest on their laurels. The goal is to shake up the team, infect them with excitement.
The event agency offered to hold corporate games to launch breakthrough internal projects: employees are divided into teams, come up with a project idea, get help from mentors from the right industry and a launch site. At the end of the year - a presentation of projects in front of the whole company, which ends with the awarding of the winners and a big holiday with summing up. The agency came up with the mechanics of the games, ways to motivate employees, a powerful brand of the competition, and all the accompanying feed.
As a result, the New Year's corporate party was entirely devoted to leaders and innovators who set a new tone for work. In two months of corporate gaming, the New Projects department received more viable proposals than in the previous two years.
Money
A good corporate party does not come cheap, because behind every detail of the holiday there is a huge invisible infrastructure.
The client wants to have a picnic. Among other things, he is offered a station with fresh berries. Price - 1000 rubles per person. “Are you out of your mind?! - the client is indignant, - I will buy each employee a bucket of berries for 1000 rubles. But when he says this, he doesn't think that:
- The berries will be beautifully packaged in individual baskets, washed and ready to eat. If necessary, they will be accompanied by napkins and disposable forks that will look like silverware.
- The berries will be fresh because they will be bought the same day early in the morning; they will be whole, not crushed and sour.
- Berries will be handed out by two spectacular girls in costumes, they will have a luxurious rustic-style stand in front of them, and a banner with the company's logo on top. The girls will smile and invite you to taste the berries, and the sound of their voice will be sweeter than those berries.
- Somewhere there will be a trash can hidden from view, where all the waste will fall, and after the event, this bucket, along with the waste, will magically disappear somewhere, it will be clean.
- On a hot day, a supply of berries for 100 people will be stored in a refrigerator hidden from view, to which electricity will be supplied from a generator, which will also be hidden from view.
- All this will be brought by truck, assembled, installed, monitored for safety, and then dismantled, put in a truck, taken away and cleaned up after themselves.
Mobile fruit station at an event in Gorky Park
Now imagine what will happen if the client decides to just buy 100 buckets of berries.
Turning to the agency, you pay not for props, products and costumes, but for a comprehensive service. If you're having an outdoor picnic and it suddenly starts to rain, a good event studio will have a gazelle full of big beautiful umbrellas, tents, blankets and burners in stock.
If the agency has counted your holiday too expensive, it is better to reduce the “coverage”: remove some stations and attractions. Better one good stand with berries than a whole park of boring second-rate attractions that get wet in the rain. And then clean up after them.
Little holiday
Corporate events don't have to be huge. Small but regular events are no less enjoyable. For example, to congratulate an employee on their first year of work or on their birthday. A person comes to the workplace, and a small congratulation and a gift are already waiting for him. For this, it is not necessary to hire an agency - you can also entrust one of the employees.
From time to time, a fruit salad bar or a fresh juice station may appear in the office. It's great when unusual objects appear in the office for a short time - a Soviet slot machine, a soda machine, a large mirror with the inscription "You look great", a mobile photo studio, a "Dandy" prefix or something like that. When an object appears for a short time, employees appreciate it more, and it does not have time to get bored.

If a company wants to spend a million rubles a year on holidays, then we recommend spending at least 400,000 on small surprises throughout the year. Prevention is better than cure.
Shake-up and staff evaluation
Large companies with multiple levels of management use corporate events to evaluate staff. There was such a case:
The head of the financial organization saw the problem: the company had become too bureaucratic and slow. Decisions are made for a long time, there are no initiatives, the quality of service has fallen. It can be seen that the problem is somewhere among middle managers. Some of them have either become skeptical or internally quit, and this infection is spreading. However, it was impossible to catch such a person, because at the meetings everyone walked along the line and portrayed exemplary employees.
The event studio came up with a shock training.
The entire managerial staff of the company was invited to a gala dinner at a manor near Moscow, with an overnight stay and weekends in nature. Gathering at 16:00 at the office, departure on a luxury bus, all at the parade. Halfway down the highway, the bus seems to break down. Managers, along with the leader, are planted. An instructor appears who orders them to move through the forest towards the camp site, where they are waiting for the night and assignments.
Several managers immediately send everything to hell, catch a ride and go home.
The rest walk 400 meters through the forest belt and end up in the camp. For the next two days, they compete, complete tasks, and dine around a campfire. They are closely monitored by the leader and instructors-psychologists: they identify leaders, analyze strengths and weaknesses. In a non-standard situation, it is difficult to hide the true character.
Hidden conflicts emerge and are resolved along the way. Managers are better at understanding themselves and their colleagues. Someone quits after the training, because he felt that he was not in the right place in this company. Someone suggested leading a new direction. But the main thing is that the team shook off the bureaucratic raid and began to work in a new way.
Such trainings require serious preparation and a professional team, including security, doctors and transport. And you need to be prepared that not all employees will want to go through these tests. Therefore, we do not recommend organizing such events on your own.
And, of course, behind such events there must be a clear methodology, structure and goals that guide people. If this is not the case, but there is a desire to run in the air - go to a paintball club.
- Even if you don't want to organize a holiday at an agency, ask them for their opinion on your idea. Professional advice doesn't hurt.
- If you apply to an agency, do not chase the lowest price. One unforeseen detail, and your employees will have to take out the garbage from the site themselves.
- Begin preparation by formulating problems and goals. Let the organizers think about how to solve these problems. If they don’t come up with anything, so be it, make a simple banquet with a cultural program.
- Corporate is not only March 8 and New Year. Think about when else you can please employees. This is not necessarily something expensive and large-scale: small pleasant surprises work just as well.
- Be careful with alcohol.

rock party
theme party
rock party
This format only at first glance seems very harsh and purely masculine. In fact, it is perfect for combined options that combine the celebration of February 23 and March 8. If your organization has a lot of fans of Russian and foreign rock, then this is exactly what you need. The party is a mini-rock festival where everyone can find something to their liking without leaving their image. The center of everyone's attention here, as at any rock festival, will be the main stage - musicians will perform on it, competitions from the hosts will be held, and congratulatory speeches will be delivered.
In addition to the main stage, many other zones will operate on the territory of our New Year's rock festival, including the "heavy artillery" bar, the "rock and rolls" snack bar, the "fan sector", the "chill-out", the "dressing room" and many others. For all guests, a dress code is announced in advance: black and red are a priority, T-shirts and sweatshirts with the image of domestic and foreign rock stars, leather, ripped jeans, all kinds of spikes, studs, chains and bracelets are perfect.

- betting on winning - everyone will have the opportunity to make a personal bet - on red or on black. At the end of the event, we will find out who won!
Today you will not surprise anyone with corporate parties. It has become a tradition for many companies to celebrate all “red” dates, whether it is International Women's Day or the company's birthday, together with the whole team. Naturally, the New Year is one of the most long-awaited holidays, because it is necessarily accompanied by fun, dancing, gifts, champagne and, of course, the chiming clock, under which you need to make a wish.
That is why every year it is more and more difficult to come up with such entertainment that will turn the usual absorption of food and drinking into an unusual meeting of the New Year. If the company where you work is quite large and the management can allocate a large amount of money for your entertainment, then you can safely offer an outing holiday, say, somewhere outside the city where you can rent a cottage, or in the mountains, or by the sea, or perhaps and abroad. But, since there are only a few such companies, it often becomes necessary to arrange a theme party on your own - they are in fashion today. Here are 10 original ideas that you and your co-workers will love...
1. Snake party
2013, as everyone probably already knows, is the year of the Snake according to the Eastern calendar. And how else to appease the symbol of the new year, if not to arrange a party in his honor! Of course, it is worth throwing aside the malicious jokes about the fact that some of the ladies present will not even need costumes, they say, it will be enough for them just to hiss ... Let's forget various quarrels, squabbles for a while and indulge in fun. How can you organize a "Snake Party"? There are several options. You can ask each guest to come with some kind of accessory that imitates snake skin: it can be a brooch or shoes for women, a tie or belt for men. You can ask everyone to dress only in those colors and shades that snakes have in nature. By the way, if you do not want a green and gray outfit, find a photo and description of a bright snake and remember its name. Thus, you will complete the task, and you will look bright.
2.Masquerade ball
Probably, there is not a single person who would not dream of trying on a mask at least for a while. New Year's masquerade ball is the best opportunity to make this dream come true! This is where you can really roam in earnest! At this evening, you can dress modestly, or you can dress provocatively - no one will judge you for this, because this is a masquerade where people try on a different image, and the more unusual this image, the more fun the corporate party will be! There are a lot of options here. For example, a masquerade can be themed: all guests must dress up as their favorite literary characters or represent a particular era.
3.Hollywood party
If you have ever seen how the Oscars are presented, then you perfectly understand what is at stake! Throughout the corporate party, guests will have to receive their bonus. These can be both comic nominations, like "Incorrigible bastard", and quite serious ones, for example, "Best Head of Department". Naturally, the dress code should correspond to the “red carpet”: men should be in tuxedos, and ladies in the most chic dresses. Do not forget to prepare the red carpet itself, the Oscars, and also invite a photographer, because the indefatigable paparazzi must accompany the stars of the company throughout the evening.
4. Gangster or pirate party
Here, too, everything is not very difficult: you just need to dress in accordance with your idea of \u200b\u200bgangsters or pirates. For example, male gangsters must be in striped suits, dark shirts and hats pulled down over their eyes, and women in vintage dresses and incomparable hats. Pirates must have a striped vest, a bandana and an obligatory ear ring. Everything else is up to you. At a pirate party, rum must be served, and at a gangster party - any alcohol, but in coffee cups. Entertainment - thematic, whether searching for a chest, or playing the "Mafia".
5. Hogwarts
The adventures of the young wizard have long captivated not only children, but also adults all over the world, so why not take this story to your New Year's party? All employees will dress in the colors of the faculties - Gryffinder, Slytherin, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw. The boss or CEO will temporarily turn into Dumbledore, and the chief accountant into Severus Snow. But the role of the One Whose Name cannot be called can be played by a tax inspector. Fans of this story can easily come up with "Hogwarts-style" entertainment.
6. Back to the USSR
If many in your team still remember how it was during the Soviet Union, why not prepare a corporate blue light? Posters of the Soviet period can be hung on the walls, popular songs of the 50-80s can be put in the background, and the Christmas tree can be decorated with old toys. Do not forget about the obligatory attribute of the New Year - "Soviet" champagne and Olivier salad, processed cheese and doctor's sausage!
7. Oriental party
It will be a holiday for those who have a weakness for oriental cuisine. Guests must come in kimonos and exotic robes. On the tables - only all kinds of sushi, rolls and sashimi, and on the walls - fans and images of geishas.
8. Party "The Last Hero"
For the most persistent and hardy, you can prepare a "last hero" party, which will be a series of continuous competitions and events, according to the results of which it will be possible to determine the very, very "last hero" of the company. At the end of the evening, the director will give him a super prize, say, a week's vacation or a weekend abroad. The gift must be such that many would like to compete for it.
9. Cave Party
An excellent occasion to prove that women always remain women and even during the primitive communal system they can look 100%. What can this party do? Primitive and at the same time unique. There are only earthenware and fried meat on the tables, and dancing in fur coats that imitate primitive attire will be remembered by everyone for a long time.
