Nor-Cal's Beer Fridays: Fostering Connections and Fun

Written by Alisyn Gularte | Thu, May 30, '24

Here at Nor-Cal, we believe in fostering a positive and collaborative work environment. That's why we've created traditions like Beer Fridays, where employees can unwind, connect with colleagues, and celebrate the week's accomplishments. These gatherings are more than just a chance to grab a drink after work.


They're a chance to:

Build stronger bonds
Stepping away from the day-to-day grind allows employees to connect on a more personal level. Sharing conversations and laughs outside the office setting can build trust, rapport, and a stronger sense of team spirit.


Boost creativity and innovation
A change of scenery can spark new ideas. When people come together in a relaxed atmosphere, they're more likely to share ideas freely and think outside the box. This can lead to increased creativity and innovation within the company.


Improve employee morale and engagement
Feeling valued and appreciated is key to a happy and productive workforce. Beer Fridays and off-site events show employees that Nor-Cal prioritizes their well-being and enjoyment. This can lead to increased morale, engagement, and loyalty.




 

 

Our recent Beer Friday outing to kick off Memorial Day weekend is a perfect example. By heading to a local spot for drinks and eats, we provided a fun and relaxed way for employees to connect and unwind. These off-site gatherings further strengthen the positive aspects of our Beer Friday tradition.

So, next time you hear about Nor-Cal's Beer Fridays, remember, it's about more than just a drink. It's about building a strong, happy, and successful team! At Nor-Cal Controls, we are passionate about what we do. Learn more about our company perks and/or reach out to chat about your next big project!
