A new year and new habits, but remote work continues. Remote work and hybrid events have become a permanent part of everyday life. We compiled a list of ideas for motivating staff and improving the well-being with the help of virtual solutions.

With the changed operating environment, new ways of taking care of and motivating the well-being of employees are needed. Fortunately, companies and organizations are offered modern ways to organize staff events and opportunities virtually or hybridly.

1. Uplifting content for a remote meeting

One low-threshold solution to liven up your workday is to bring performers to a regular remote meeting, such as Teams, Zoom, or Google Meet. The performer can be, for example, a magician, artist, comedian or other entertainer who suits the nature and target group of the event. Performers can attend regular meetings, for example, once a quarter. In this way, a sense of belonging, an employer image and shared memories can be built, even if the participants are not in the same place.

2. Motivational speaker remotely

As part of meetings with supervisors, salespeople or other staff, a motivating speaker can be booked as a guest for a remote event or opportunity to create team spirit, inspire and motivate the staff towards common goals. Motivating speakers can be found on many different themes and topics both in Finland and internationally. More and more top international speakers are also doing inexpensive remote gigs. A motivating speaker can be, for example, a hockey coach, an artist or a top salesperson.

3. Moving together remotely

Taking care of the well-being and mobility of staff remotely is challenging. In fact, many have immersed themselves in the world of work and reduced physical activity. On the other hand, it is also important to leave room for stagnation. It is possible to organize various meditation, gym and yoga moments remotely. It is possible to build content as individual events, but at Wayment, we believe that more constant concern for staff well-being will lead to the best possible results in the long run. Investing in exercise and well-being reduces long-term sickness absences.

4. Training

In the long run, taking care of one's own well-being is increasingly an individual's own responsibility, and nausea is not necessarily transmitted behind the scenes. The well-being of the personnel can also be maintained by organizing various lectures and events that remind the staff to take care of their own well-being and themselves. It is important that every company encourages staff to exercise, eat healthy, get enough sleep and calm down. Healthy personnel achieve better results and avoid sick leave.

5. Team days

With corona, Christmas days have all too often fallen into the footsteps of budget cuts. At the latest, it is important now that companies create team spirit responsibly. Instead of large personnel events, it has become more and more the responsibility of teams. Instead of expensive personnel events, it is possible to organize various agile and small-scale events with smaller groups, for example, in the middle of nature. What would a joint wakeboarding moment, dance session or guided nature trip sound like? There are a huge number of inspiring opportunities, as long as you give space to your creativity!

Long-term action guarantees results!

The well-being of the staff does not come from a single capture, but at Wayment we believe that the best results come from long-term and participatory activities. Through us, it is possible to combine various activities, speakers and events into annual entities that take into account the different needs of the personnel and the organization, as well as the seasons. It is possible to implement events as individual events or, if you wish, create custom turnkey solutions.
