Despite the fact that February 23 is an official day off, and this year also falls on Saturday, men at work should be congratulated. And why only congratulate? You can arrange a real holiday! Choose the perfect greeting for your colleagues - depending on their sense of humor, team cohesion and, importantly, the budget allocated for the holiday.

1. Light party

Is there a budget, management is negative about disruption, and employees are not very friendly? Organize a light party!

• So, for everything about everything, you have an hour - and that one at lunchtime. Buy sausage and cheese cuts, a couple of salads, some champagne and a cake in advance by the women's team. Buy cheap souvenirs for male staff. Decorate your office with balloons with wishes written on them.
• At lunchtime, invite everyone to the table, congratulate the men in poetic form and give presents.

In some companies, the relationship is quite warm and the management allocates a certain budget for the holidays. But the main thing is that your boss is ready to defuse the working atmosphere! This means that you have several hours to celebrate. If everyone has a sense of humor, then a theme party is the best choice.

• Prepare gifts in the form of front-line bags in which you can put scarves, socks, a cup, keychain. In a word, everything that has enough imagination. And set the table itself in the spirit of a military atmosphere. Do not cook delicious dishes, but do (at least for warming up) black bread, canned food and vodka. The main thing is to create the right surroundings and choose the right music.
• After the feast, hold contests among the "fighters". It all depends on your imagination. Eat a whole lemon at a speed, fasten buttons on your inside out shirt, assemble and disassemble a ballpoint pen, fold the funniest and fastest congratulations and other humorous contests will not leave the men of your office indifferent to your efforts!
• At the end, you can hold a competition for the best dance or simply dance to the war songs of the past.

Do people in your office know how to relax and how should they celebrate each holiday? Are you a young and creative team? Then you should start preparing now.

• For all male colleagues, get a military uniform, for the female part it will be enough to wear military-style dresses or suits (fortunately, just a couple of years ago they were in fashion) and garrison caps.
• Come to the office early to meet each man with a firecracker and give him dry rations. And, of course, give him a soldier's uniform, in which he will spend the whole day. Don't forget the makeup!
• Have a race across the office between desks with obstacles or chair races.
• Let your male colleagues show what they are capable of: let them pass the athletic standards for push-ups and pull-ups. Present a nice souvenir to each winner. It is a good idea to give out chocolate medals to the winners.
• Have a real belly feast at lunchtime. There should be a lot of meat dishes on the table, pay attention to drinks. Let there be both strong and non-alcoholic ones.
• If possible, continue your vacation outside the office. Collective games bring together and strengthen the corporate spirit. And many leaders, knowing this, use them successfully. It's great if you go bowling with your entire office, or better yet, rent a paintball field. There is fun, adrenaline, and military themes. After all, no one has forgotten why the celebration?

At the end of the day, congratulate the men again. While the bus takes everyone home, remember the war songs - surely each of you knows more than one. Sing it!

Happy Defender of the Fatherland!

But you better be in plain clothes, you guys!
Let the uniform on you be only sports,
And your life is sunny and active!

And now we proclaim ...

The words are interrupted by music from the movie "Star Wars" "March of the Empire". The presenter falls silent. The military commander comes out.

Commander: A new crisis is brewing in the galactic republic! The dark side wins all battles. I - the official representative of the Galactic Empire - came to Earth to fulfill a prophecy and find (number of office men) warriors who will save our Universe.

The presenter writes down the winners after each competition. All competitions are accompanied by music.

And we will test the soldiers for their dexterity.

And the one who is simpler does not survive!

When you go into battle
There is no time and you need to hurry.
Who will be the first to eat
He will be known as the most clever.

A rope is pulled in front of the participants, to which bagels or donuts are tied on a string. The first person to eat the whole donut wins.

Who can smash it with a fist, that guy is not a miss!

Each participant is given an empty matchbox. The box is placed on an edge on a flat surface. The task is to flatten it with a blow of a fist, usually it flies out from under the hand.

The test is no worse
You have to get around!
Before you are the shells for the gun,
You need to check them for strength!

Participants stand in a row and receive cocktail straws.

Commander:With the help of a straw, you need to transfer all objects strictly to your territory. The one who saved more "population" wins the competition!

If there are many men, then it is better to divide them into two teams (first-second). A large plate full of M&M chocolates is installed, you need to pull the candy with a straw to transfer it to your plate.

Today, a corporate event or a celebration in the office is not limited to "three tulips for March 8" or "voluntary and compulsory skits." Modern formats can diversify any office event and make it not only original, but also memorable. Communication agency Brooke communications shares a few tips.

Decide on the format

First of all, it is important to decide on the format. For example, if you do not have a comfortable common room for gathering all employees, the format of a quest, an immersive show or a hobby club is quite suitable. Do not try to drive all employees into a cramped room, where everyone will feel uncomfortable, try to escape to your office at the first opportunity.

The implementation and maintenance of one common idea and concept will make the event complete and harmonious. Ideas can be either neutral or the most daring. Use corridors, coffee points, conference rooms. Moving from one point to another, where the concept of an event opens up from different sides, will be no less interesting than gathering guests in one room.

Take care of the right invitation

Invitation is a very important part of corporate culture. The employee should not find out about the upcoming celebration in the smoking room: "Mary Vanna said to be at six." An invitation is an integral element of the event itself, with which you can immerse employees in the concept, intrigue and interest. You don’t have to send out a corporate mailing or post a notice in the cafeteria - there are plenty of other options. For example, a teaser announcement of the upcoming holiday, only slightly revealing the main idea, an audio invitation, sending not classic invitation cards, but some attributes of the upcoming holiday, creating a Telegram or Whats App channel, and many others.

Organize your buffet wisely

A few words about catering. Of course, the simplest and most common way of serving food and drinks is a buffet table. But, as a rule, most employees strive to make a supply of food on their plate and hastily head to feast again in their beloved office. Of course, you cannot completely avoid this, but you can take care of fun, comfort and safety.

First, the Swedish line should be replenished, let the dishes be simpler and more satisfying. A great option: invite a chef with an animated station, this will avoid the windiness of the dishes. Secondly, consider the optimal number of seats or stud tables. If the area of \u200b\u200bthe room does not allow this, invite the waiters. It is imperative to plan in advance the appearance of the Swedish line and service personnel: this is a great and budgetary way to maintain the concept.

Ahead of the upcoming holidays on February 23rd and March 8th, these 6 fresh ideas will help you take a fresh look at the holidays.

Ideas for celebrating February 23

1. Gangsters in the city

A play-performance in which the participants are transported into the atmosphere of the boundless gangster Chicago of the 20s: each player at the table is a potential suspect, your neighbor is not who he claims to be, and the pretty girl opposite is clearly up to something.

The classic mafia game is divided into roles, where employees, together with actors, try to bring the head of the clan to clean water. For this, believable props with pistols and contraband alcohol, planted clues and riddles, uninvited characters that will appear in the room and make their own adjustments to the action are used.

For example, if a police officer is killed during the night, the sheriff will rush into the room and call the alleged killer for interrogation using a lie detector. Or in one of the rounds, a seductive mistress of the salon will appear among the awake guests, who will offer one of the villains a tempting deal against members of his gang.

At the beginning of the day, a box is delivered to the office, from which a severed hand with a ring sticks out. Someone sent a threat and the company's employees have to find out who exactly. Everyone pulls a card out of the box, in it - the dropped out role and number. Every 1–1, 5 hours the leader will invite employees with certain numbers to the headquarters (meeting room), forming a team. Actors will already be waiting for them at the headquarters: whether they are on your side or not - you will have to find out during the game. With each round, the characters change and new tasks are added.

2. Beer casino

Bachelor party in the "В̶е̶г̶а̶с̶е" office in a hipster way. A gambling intellectual duel with tasting different sorts of craft beer. The sommelier invites guests to an educational happy hour, in the program of which testing with tasks for erudition, intuition and the ability to quickly google questions.

In the end, beer is the most masculine drink and every member of the stronger sex should understand it better than anyone else. And if there are gaps, then the presenter will definitely fill them and even more - he will tell about your favorite drink what we can show off in front of friends. The most active participants and those with the largest number of correct answers will receive gift boxes with beer and accessories (mugs, coasters, etc.).

A playing field with marks is created especially for the casino. Guests roll dice, place bets, select questions, complete tasks and earn chips. In addition to the casino, guests are invited to take a variety of photos, for example, a mug shot - a shot against the background of a wall in a police station with signs of an eventful night.

3. Geek men’s club

The League of Real Geeks is opening its doors. A cave of gamers with entertainment for every taste: pinballs, consoles, virtual simulators, arcades, glasses with augmented reality and, of course, an inexhaustible supply of snacks (chips, cola, pizza, etc.). Pause all your activities and press play on the joystick. The room is decorated with pixel elements, soft ottomans are thrown over. And the characters go straight off the screen: Lara Croft, Mario and superheroes.

Ideas for celebrating March 8

1. Hygge Land

2. Breakfast at Tiffany's

Even if you do not consider yourself to be Audrey's fans, deny your obsession with diamonds and have never wanted a ring in a turquoise box, there is nothing more "girlish" (regardless of age) than breakfast at Tiffany's: hot coffee in paper cups, cupcakes for every taste, shelves with sweets, waiters with champagne, courteous gentlemen distributing compliments, crystal chandeliers under the ceiling. Mania turquoise right in your office. At the entrance, each guest will be given a string of pearls (unfortunately artificial) and long gloves to get used to the image of the heroine of Truman Capote's novel.

3. Beauty bar

There are two universal remedies for blues and bad moods that help all girls under any life circumstances - manicure and styling! Beauty is omnipotent, and it is surprisingly easy to please a woman - let her go to lunch for a beauty procedure, and you definitely won't want it! So why reinvent the wheel when there is a beauty salon and we invite all the employees to run into it for an hour or two. Champagne for those who are waiting, new looks for those who have already fallen into the skillful hands of a stylist.

Having signed the paper in his office, he will twirl the pen you donated in his hand for a couple of seconds, and his heart will be filled with gratitude.

Imagine how pleasant it is, having chilled out early in the morning on a fishing or hunting trip, to take out of your pocket a stylish flask with an engraved dedication signature, sip a sip of warming cognac and remember that his only and beloved is waiting in a cozy house tempo.

When choosing gifts in the form of clothes or accessories, it is important to understand that the older a man gets, the more he gravitates towards classics in style. For example, such men especially appreciate the chic leather strap in wristwatches, with the simplest dial. For absolutely nothing superfluous, his things and wardrobe details should be simply of high quality and corresponding to taste and individual preferences. Thinking about what to give men on February 23, it should be borne in mind that different sexes have their own special, sometimes radically different attitude towards presentations. For men, the main thing in a gift is its practical value. The success of cute trinkets lasts exactly as long as the young lady giving this little thing is nearby. Then such a thing, which cost the girl many hours, or even many days of mental anguish in the process of acquiring it, is sent for life-long storage to the most rarely used desk drawer or distant shelf.

He has long known about your feelings, but understanding of some weaknesses and gratitude to a strong person is often sorely lacking. Therefore, in order for a gift to really "hook" your man, it must have some qualities or at least one of them: usefulness, giving masculinity, a source of pride, be of high quality or branded, correspond to hobbies, hobbies, addictions, or embody old dreams.

If the speech is about what to give to men on February 23, who are your colleagues, then the main thing here is the usefulness of the gift.

For example, donate pens and pencil holders, a CD shelf, and other things that might come in handy at work. If a corporate party is planned at your work, then we recommend developing a fun holiday scenario, coming up with small poems on postcards, and giving inexpensive souvenirs.

Well, and of course, what a holiday without all the goodies! After all, it is known that "the way to a man's heart is laid through the stomach." Show your own culinary skills, and, we assure you, men will appreciate it!

If you do not have poetic talents, then find something suitable on the Internet. You can choose ready-made greetings from February 23 in pictures and create individual postcards by printing them in any nearest photo studio.

An alternative, even more economical option for congratulating men on February 23rd can be one single large postcard-poster on which the names of all colleagues, their best qualities and merits, and words of congratulations will be listed. If the relationship in the team allows it, congratulations to men from February 23 can be comic. Photos of male colleagues can be processed in Photoshop in a variety of ways and decorated into a single poster. Hang this gift in a conspicuous place so that it attracts the attention of others - a great mood for the whole day will be simply guaranteed! The main thing is not to get too carried away in bantering - remember: March 8 is on the nose.

If finances allow you to make presents for everyone, you can use the following tips. The options for personalized gifts are varied and depend solely on your own imagination and availability of funds.

Gifts for colleagues can be pens, lighters, perfume sets, components and accessories for phones or computers. A valuable gift will be a certificate for a certain amount for its implementation in an office equipment store, or auto parts. Your colleagues will surely appreciate tickets to any entertainment event, for example, a boxing tournament or a football match.

Collective congratulations of men since February 23 Option one.

Unlike an individual gift, a collective gift may well be creative or even somewhat spicy. Now, in offices that are distinguished by free politics, it has become fashionable to order strippers from February 23rd as a congratulation for men (of course, after work or at lunchtime).

Option two.

If it is customary in your team to celebrate events at one festive table, then cover the "clearing" for your colleagues. Try to do this secretly from them, arrange for the delivery of ready-made meals to the office, or cooperate and bring each one of your own specialty dishes at home. Decorate the dining room where you will celebrate February 23 with balloons, for example, and greet the heroes of the occasion with pipes and whistles. All kinds of holiday accessories can be purchased at any children's store. Under the napkins, on the table, you can hide a small surprise for each colleague: a small personal postcard, lottery tickets, or something else. You can also arrange a symbolic drawing of prizes, gifts on homemade tickets.

Option three.

To congratulate men on February 23, you will need: 1. - a festive screensaver on your computer; 2. - festive wall newspaper; 3. - caviar, pancakes, vegetables, meat pies; 4. - gifts.

The form of congratulations, of course, depends on the possibilities of your budget and the form of relationships between employees in the team. An interesting and memorable long-term congratulation of men on February 23, you can think of, even if you are the only woman in the team. On the eve of the celebration, stay longer in the office and, after waiting for your colleagues to go home, put festive computer screensavers on their desktops (try not to knock down any settings in the computer and not "demolish" the necessary files).

Step # 2

Make a wall newspaper with your own hands, posting on it photos of the men of your team and congratulation poems (the main thing is not to forget anyone, otherwise you will have to make amends for the whole next year). If your company does not have the necessary equipment, you can simply print photos on a printer, attach them to an ordinary Whatman paper, and hand-write congratulations to men from February 23rd.

Step # 3

One of the main events is the festive table. The main thing here is not to confuse anything: leave the cakes and all kinds of sweets for March 8, let the men give them to you. For the strong half of humanity, meat dishes will be the best option: make homemade pies with meat (bachelors will especially appreciate home cooking), bake pancakes and buy a jar of caviar for them, bring vegetable slices. This will be the perfect treat for men. If you are not sure whether it is really worth putting alcohol on the table, then it is better not to put it. You don't have to worry, the men, if something happens, will quickly decide which of them to run to the store. But, nevertheless, it is better to put good brandy and vodka, and for the women present, in order to have good wine, champagne will not be superfluous at all. In this matter, the main golden mean is that the question is not whether to put or not to put, but what it is obligatory to set, but - the norm - a lot will be bad, it will not be at all - even worse.

Step number 4

The most important component of congratulations to men on February 23 is gifts. If you don't know your coworkers well enough to give everyone a personalized gift, then opt for gifts that will delight most men. Such gifts can be towels or hats with funny inscriptions for going to the sauna or bathhouse. You can buy a bottle of alcoholic beverage and attach labels with photos of the gifted and lists of the best qualities on each.

If there are not many women in your men's team, you can limit yourself to just a festive table or postcards - colleagues will appreciate your efforts and attention.

Step number 5

If your team has free, informal relationships, you can arrange fun contests, sing a few songs with your colleagues. You can play a humorous scene in front of men, arrange a kind of parade, with the entire women's team disguised as vests and elements of military uniform. Men will certainly appreciate your efforts and on March 8 they will definitely try to please you.
