Most people expect to receive some sort of gift of appreciation at work during the holidays. In the last week, I’ve attended two professional holiday parties where people won prizes, delicious food was served, and entertainment was enjoyed. Christmas is the traditional time to plan events like this for the people we work with. How can we recreate this magic and appreciation at other times of the year, not just around Christmas? I’ve seen organizations do all sorts of incentives throughout the year to show appreciation for their people to make them feel seen as humans, rather than just a number. These activities also increase their employee retention. Trips, contests, scotch tape races, you name it. 🤣 Holiday parties are so fun, don’t get me wrong. It’s also the time when people expect it. What happens when you reward your people when they aren’t expecting it? Lots of good things. Improved mental health, job satisfaction, and productivity at work. Just to name a few. If our entire energy and budget goes towards one party a year, perhaps there are ways we can adjust to make people feel seen the rest of the year too, when they are less likely to expect it. There something special about the element of surprise appreciation. Plus, scotch tape races down the hall are pretty cheap and so fun. What do you do to make others feel seen & appreciated when they’re not expecting it? #julielee #iseeyouleadership #theconnectedleader

🎶 On the sixth day of Riskmas, my workplace gave to me… a party invite that read ‘attendance optional (but not really) 😬 We all want to celebrate and have fun during the holidays, but it’s important to remember that celebrations aren’t one-size-fits-all. A great way to make sure everyone feels included is to gather input from the team—when feasible—about what activities they’d enjoy or how they’d like to celebrate. If that’s not possible, consider ways to make the event broadly inclusive and welcoming to all. At the end of the day, the goal is to create a celebration that feels welcoming and enjoyable for everyone—without making attendance feel like an obligation. It’s important to keep things optional and ensure no one is treated differently or excluded if they choose not to participate. 🎄✨ #Riskmas #WorkplaceWellbeing #HolidayParties #InclusiveCelebrations #WorkplaceCulture #HolidayStress #EmployeeWellbeing #OptionalFun #HRReminders #TeamCelebrations #WorkplaceInclusivity #FestiveSeason

Where can you find M1 employees relaxing? Out in the sunshine, of course! Cheng Chuan Khaw, our Head of Platform for MVNE(O), Pre-paid and Maxx, goes above and beyond to organise unforgettable experiences for his team. Think bigger than birthday celebrations and post-work dinners: we’re talking De-Stress Yacht Parties, Desaru Weekends, and Bintan Sleepovers. These are not just work events – they are opportunities for the team to bond, unwind, and recharge. “For me, organising and participating in these gatherings has been a way to bring more positivity into our work environment,” said Khaw. “It’s incredibly fulfilling to see the team laughing, connecting, and just being themselves outside of work.” A trip to Kukup especially stands out for Khaw. With no itinerary planned, the group embarked on outdoor adventures down scenic locations, indulged in local eats, and wrapped up the night with karaoke, games, and meaningful conversations. The relaxed, fun-filled atmosphere deepened their bonds, making it an experience Khaw will never forget. To immortalise these precious moments, Khaw creates video montages that bring these memories to life. For him, experimenting with music, visuals, and editing to tell a story that resonates with everyone is a labour of love. His efforts have not gone unnoticed. Team members have expressed how much they appreciate these thoughtful touches, noting that these activities and the montages have strengthened team morale, deepened connections, and added a sense of fun to their work dynamics. How are you bringing sunshine to your coworkers today? #M1Connects #BeSunshine

Today marks one year of sobriety, my soberversary. I absolutely love Christmas, to the point I start wearing Christmas jumpers on the 5th November (I've got to wait until after my mums birthday, of course). I love a festive mulled wine and Christmas morning bucks fizz. Last year, early in my sobriety, I bought AF prosecco and orange juice for my Christmas morning bucks fizz, and AF mulled wine that I heated with orange slices and cinnamon sticks. Super yum, super festive. Sobriety wasn't necessarily easy to start with. I felt a lot of pressure to drink and judgement for not. Whether that was real or imagined is irrelevant, it's how I felt. Now, though, I wouldn't change a thing. I love sobriety. I still "drink", I just choose AF options. I'm still social (when I want to be). The main differences now? I'm never hungover or suffering hangxiety. My blood pressure and BMI are both healthy. My bank balance... well, that's about the same, I don't deprive myself. The improvements to my physical and mental health are phenomenal, and I don't miss alcohol at all. I've slowly let friends, family, and colleagues know about my sobriety, and on the whole, they've either been supportive in their own ways, curious but polite, or frankly not cared. So for my team Christmas meal next week, I know my colleagues won't bat an eye at my AF choices. They won't question it, comment on it, make judgements, or peer pressure me. They might start friendly conversation about it, but I know they respect me and my choices and I feel comfortable sharing it with them. I urge everyone to be a safe space for sober or sober curious friends, family, and colleagues (both during festive periods and year round). You don't need to know their reasons (and truthfully, they don't need one), you just need to be respectful and kind.
