Spreadsheets in the Sun - 5 activities you can do with your team during the summer

Be brave. Let's talk about one of the most important aspects people ignore in the workplace. Fun/work balance.??

We all know exceptional, creative, and productive teams work wonders because they have mastered not viewing their work life as another task on the spreadsheet of their lives. The summer heat might make things worse as productivity decreases and creativity starts looking outside the window to other horizons. Do you and all your colleagues grimace at the idea of working during the summer???

Let's go through 5 ways ASSIST Software makes the summer months fun and productive for everyone!?

The 5 activities you can do as a team during the summer?

1. Add seashells to your scripts.

Have you ever considered organizing a two-week seaside getaway for an entire team? Before dismissing the idea, remember that every member will still be working while getting the perfect tan.

Instead of sobbing after a couple of days of vacation by the seaside, your team could experience something unique.?

Create bonds, improve mental health, and reward your team while enhancing productivity, creativity, and employee satisfaction. Clients might come and go, but if your team is happy, your business will attract the best of the best.?

We send our hardworking teams to the beach several times a year. Guess what? They always met every deadline.??

?

2. Mix coding and celebrations.?

Find meaningful events and invite your team to a small, themed party. Without breaking the bank, you can organize little "Unwind with me" sessions that will surely be appreciated.??

For example, we are having such an event always happening on the 24th of June. ASSIST Software loves giving back to the community, and we are proud of our Romanian culture. Thus, we celebrate the Universal Day of the Romanian Blouseby dressing in traditional clothes and having a good time together.?

Needless to say, this event brings joy and is heavily anticipated by our team.?

3. Discover the HTML of hiking.?

Going up? ASSIST Hiking Day is an event where more than 150 people get together on the weekend! What do we do? We choose a picturesque hiking trail, and we enjoy nature. It's that easy, and the overall team excitement is unmatched.??

From the office straight to nature and fresh air, a hiking day is the best way to detach entirely from schedules and meetings. The breathtaking scenery allows our colleagues to be in awe together while ascending with determination.??

When did you last get to enjoy nature together with your team???

4. Combat heatwaves with ice and internships?

Interns can be a breath of fresh air for your company.??

As classes end, fun office headquarters everywhere get a boost of inspiration from the students looking for a summer internship. Having new faces on the team will undoubtedly refresh the environment. Interns come with questions and passion for the job and nudge their mentors to continue their personal and professional development.??

Let your team become a perfect mentor for somebody starting their IT career. We have intern groups scheduled to join us, and we can't wait.??

5. Allow your binary beats to shine.?

Summer is synonymous with festivals. Many events happen throughout the summertime, but the music festivals are the most popular. Why limit the discussions about the latest festival to the office kitchen? You can have your team dancing and enjoying themselves together.?

Look into sponsoring events that you know your team is interested in attending. Having a good time should be a priority for a healthy, responsible team who probably sometimes forgets to take a little bit of time off.??

?

These are some of our recommendations for living your best work life during the summer.?

We cherish our teams, and if you want to be a part of an innovation-focused group that cares about one another, ASSIST Software is the right fit for you.??
