Accelerate Events, Inc. Builds a Successful Work Environment
It's after five o'clock. However, it's not unusual for members of Accelerate Events, Inc. to be gathered and enjoying each other's company. Managers of the interactive marketing firm explain that this is part of their success culture.
Franklin, MI, January 29, 2016 (Newswire.com) - “The first key to company success is how well your team works together,” said Anna, Accelerate Events, Inc.’s Director of Operations. “Building team cohesion is a main element of our company culture.”
As Anna shared, Accelerate Events, Inc.’s recruiting practices are geared with team players in mind. “We foster a collaborative environment,” she said. “Therefore, when we interview candidates, we identify whether they have the right attitudes for successfully working alongside others. It’s important that your associates can cooperate with each other.”

“We also offer an empowering atmosphere,” she added. “We trust our associates to deliver the best possible results. By instilling them with a greater confidence, they’re better equipped to solve problems and realize their own potential.”
According to Anna, this starts at the top. “Managers model the behaviors they wish their team to exemplify,” she said. “We encourage our associates to communicate and work together by doing so ourselves. We also let mistakes become learning opportunities. This way, they’re more likely to take the risks needed to be truly innovative.”
Finally, the firm’s leadership places strong emphasis on team bonding. “We have weekly team nights when everyone relaxes and enjoys each other’s company,” she stated. “Sometimes it’s just a dinner out. Other times, we’ll challenge each other to games or other fun events. It’s all good natured, and it helps us grow.”
Accelerate Events, Inc. Managers Offer Tips for Team Building
Anna recognized that many company leaders struggle to find team bonding exercises to which their associates will respond positively. “You don’t want groans and eye rolling, that’s for sure,” she noted. “The best way to get buy-in for activities is to ask your people what they enjoy doing. For instance, if everyone likes bowling, perhaps have a bowling night. If you have a lot of video game fanatics, have everyone bring in their gaming systems and have a contest one evening.”
Knowledge sharing is critical, so Anna recommended asking associates to conduct training classes based on skills they’ve mastered. “This is a tremendous way to not only share knowledge, but also to help identify future leaders. First, it helps associates build appreciation for how hard it is to teach others, so they tend to pay more attention. Second, it engages them in the process, which builds excitement. Third, they gain new perspectives each time, which we love here at Accelerate Events, Inc.”
“Remember, your team embodies your business’ worldview and principles,” she said. “Help them gain confidence and work together to make your future sustainable.”
