As your team transitions to a future of working remotely, keeping them engaged is critical
As virtually every business has transitioned to remote work these past months and often for the foreseeable future, it is critical to ensure your team stays engaged even while they may no longer meet in-person as they used to.
Virtual trivia events have emerged as an easy-to-implement and effective way to help keep your employees and teams socializing outside of the context of their day-to-day work.
Read on to see how adding virtual trivia events can be a great way to keep your team connected to and engaged in your mission.
Effortless socialization
After a long day in the office, taking your team out to the local bar for an after-work happy hour was a great way to gather and let out some post-work stress. Trying to replicate the happy hour experience online can sometimes be difficult and many have run into awkward silences while trying to replicate the same experience.
With trivia nights, you can get the team together in a virtual space and add a structure to the experience that keeps everyone engaged and excited the whole time. Don’t worry, beverages are still welcome, your team will just need to BYOB.
CREATIVE Team-Building
Trivia events are inherently great for allowing teams to come together and work on solving a common problem together. When putting on a virtual trivia event, you can break your group into trivia teams and put them into virtual breakout rooms to deliberate on their answers.
This smaller group feel helps your teams connect without the large group being in the way, and helps foster social connections that can segue back into creating a more productive workforce.
Friendly competition
Everyone likes a little bit of friendly competition. With trivia, testing a team’s knowledge can be a great way to get teams excited about playing well. Offer small prizes to get teams focused on bringing their trivia knowledge A-game.
Have teams compete over the course of time by creating on-going leaderboards that drive additional competition. Publish the leaderboards company-wide to get everyone in on the fun, even if they just want to be spectators of the epic trivia battles.
Add a focused trivia tournament to align with other company functions and get a bracket going to have teams start planning out their perfect trivia strategy.
Integrated Education
Learning something new can be invigorating for anyone, especially if it is related to the work that you do. With trivia content, you can integrate questions that are focused on your business area or team skills to get them even more interested in the event at hand.
We’ve seen several companies integrate company history, employee fun facts and interesting factoids about their industry to get teams excited about the relatable content.
Adding a virtual trivia event to your team can help keep them engaged in this newly remote world.
