The issue of how best to entertain your employees, clients and business partners away from the office can be a difficult one to get right. In fact, corporate entertainment has a tendency to go disastrously wrong unless it is given adequate consideration and a sufficient period of time is set aside for careful planning and preparation. It is worthwhile keeping an open mind at the start of the process to review all the available options. Aside from the list of corporate entertainment possibilities listed in this article, it is worthwhile seeking the advice and professional assistance of an event management company, several of which are listed our Approved Index.
But how to form an idea of the kind of entertainment appropriate for your needs? Well, a good way is to consider your audience profile and the circumstances surrounding the entertainment. It might be useful to consider the background and average age of your audience, because this will give you an idea of what is acceptable and achievable. A group of senior management professionals from the Midlands will have a different idea of a good time from a team of marketing executives on a business trip from Japan, for instance. Also, there are some forms of entertainment that require a degree of audience participation and others where the audience can sit passively and enjoy the show, so consider whether your goal will be to invigorate and boost the group's morale or provide some from of light entertainment to take their mind off work. The secret of successful corporate entertainment is to give the audience what they want, which can be very different from what you want to give them.
There follows a list of passive corporate entertainment options for an audience fluent in English and familiar with English culture:
- After dinner speakers including sporting personalities and celebrities
- Comedians and magic acts, although you'll want to make a judgment about how traditional or risqué they can be
- Themed parties including Wild West, James Bond and Pirates Of The Caribbean
- West End theatre trips
- Quiz, pub and party games
