November 11, 2009 Tip of the Day - Throw An Office Karaoke PartyFiled under: Tip of the Day Sometimes a little office fun will bring some levity and motivation that can’t easily be found these days. Think that throwing a company karaoke competition is a better reward for staff this year than the company picnic? You may be right – and save a lot of money doing so. At $5 per person per hour or $20 per hour for a private room, karaoke is a reasonable alternative for company get-togethers. Can’t get away to a lounge? Karaoke machines can be rented for as little as $75 for an in-office sing-off. Just make sure that staffers are comfortable with the idea before forcing them to belt it out like an American Idol contestant. To ensure participation, sign up your more outgoing employees beforehand to sing a little ditty. This will surely lighten the mood and give everybody something to laugh at – a great idea for a Friday afternoon. – Betsy Cummings From the 2009 Counselor State of the Industry |
