Voluntary participation starts with how you announce and put together the outing. Communicate in advance that participation is optional. Those who stay home face no consequences. Plan the outing within working hours. Those who take part outside working hours receive time compensation. Offer different activities, so introverted colleagues also find something that suits them. Think of a quiet programme alongside the main component. Ask a few weeks in advance what colleagues find important. Adjust the programme accordingly. Keep groups small, 8 to 15 people per component. Avoid compulsory intro rounds or activities where people have to expose themselves publicly. Give room to join in or walk away. Live Impact helps you set up a programme where taking part feels natural.
