"Off-site events are a great way to reward hard-working employees and create a culture of gratitude that is crucial to showing employees just how much they're appreciated. Scheduling fun, engaging activities outside of work hours — such as cooking classes, sand-castle building or sporting events — produces happier employees who feel valued and loved. While in-office perks are great, prove to employees they're worth the extra investment by showing appreciation outside the office environment." – Nicole Lavin, vice president of partnerships, Kapow Events
