Impulse Events are delighted to support the ‘Say Thank You At Christmas’ campaign.

It is a straightforward message; the annual Christmas party is the perfect way to say thank you to your staff. After what has been a very challenging year, for virtually every business or industry, so this year more than ever, companies should be saying ‘thank you’ to the people they employ and the Christmas party is a cost effective way of doing this.

The key message is well expressed by Charles Cotton, The Chartered Institute for Personnel and Development’s expert on staff rewards:
“If holding a Christmas party is the most effective way of recognizing the collective contribution of their employees, then employers should be wary about scrapping them in response to the ­economic downturn because the long-term impact could be damaging on employee engagement and organisational performance.

“The Christmas party is one way of reminding staff that they are part of a common endeavour.”
