Hi Svenja,

This is a tough one. I will probably start by saying that at DHL Consulting, we have a dedicated CPO team (as in ‘Chief Party Officer’) responsible for the organization of all of our events :)

Just to give you a few examples:

1. Strategy Workshop: This is a yearly multi-day event where we discuss our Strategy and, of course, socialize. We pick a new location each year. For example, in pre-COVID times, we went to Mallorca, Munich (Oktoberfest), Italy etc. I think the Mallorca Strategy Workshop is the closest to my heart as this was the first big event I attended when I joined DHL Consulting. It was beyond amazing! We had a lot of really interesting workshops to learn more about our strategy but we of course had done other cool things, as e.g. driving around the islands in convertible jeeps solving a quest, having a dinner/party at one of the beautiful fincas, planting olive trees, partying at the pool and many many more.

But we also have other events:

2. Christmas, Carnival and Summer parties: These are also regular events we celebrate each year. Every time in a different venue.

3. We also have regular team events to celebrate good work on the project (approx. every 4 months). The activities can include fine dining, bowling, laser tag, escape room etc. 

4. Running dinner: This is another great thing we do. All our colleagues split into groups and cook a specific course and we then visit each other's places to have the full set. It goes without saying that we have one large party after :)

5. Every Friday, we get together in the office after work to celebrate the end of the week, often followed by dinner in a restaurant.

As I mentioned, these are just some of the examples. Other things we do together is celebrate birthdays, promotions, return from parental leave, sabbatical etc. 

It definitely does not get boring! :)

Best regards,

Ksenia
