The past few months have been nothing short of exhilarating and demanding for the VOQIN’ team. We’ve managed an impressive 50 projects in just three months—each one more complex and demanding than a single-day event. Can you believe it? Throughout this period, we’ve coordinated efforts for around 8,000 participants, but more importantly, we’ve managed to steer a team of champions!
Behind the Scenes
Events are exciting and glamorous on the surface, but what does this intensity mean for our team?
How do we handle the peak periods of event activity, and what strategies help us manage the high season effectively?
It’s not just the frontline team, visible to all, delivering stellar projects.
There’s also an entire crew working behind the scenes, hidden from view, whose efforts are just as crucial. These unsung heroes ensure that everything runs smoothly, allowing the on-ground team to focus on delivering unforgettable experiences.
To sustain this level of commitment and enable team members to be away from the office for on-site work, there’s an unseen effort to “keep the ship afloat.” This seamless operation is a testament to what VOQIN’ stands for as a team—a unified force that constantly supports and helps one another.

The importance of Team Spirit in Companies
Trust is essential for the workplace. According to some studies, employees at high-trust companies report 74% less stress, 106% more energy, and 50% higher productivity. This is why building and maintaining trust within our team is a top priority.
Team spirit is the lifeblood of VOQIN’. It is what allows us to not only survive but thrive during periods of intense workload. But how exactly do we cultivate and maintain this spirit of unity and support?
Strategies for Maintaining Team Well-Being and Workflow
/ Regular Get-Togethers: We organize occasional get-togethers to strengthen personal bonds and foster a sense of community. These gatherings help to gain proximity and provide a refreshing change of pace.
/ Weekly Meetings with Icebreakers: Our weekly inter-department meetings start with icebreakers to lighten the mood and create an open, communicative environment. These sessions are crucial for keeping everyone on the same page and addressing any issues promptly.
/ Experience Sharing: We encourage team members to share their experiences. This practice not only builds empathy but also helps in transferring knowledge and best practices across the team.
/ Attention to Each Other: Paying attention to colleagues’ well-being is a core value. We make a concerted effort to check in with each other, ensuring that no one feels overwhelmed or unsupported.
/ Respect and Understanding for Emotions: (We’re Emotions Creators, after all!) VOQIN’ prioritizes respect and understanding for everyone’s emotions. Recognizing and validating each other’s feelings creates a supportive and compassionate workplace.
/ Focus on Sustainability: We are committed to sustainability, not just in the environmental sense but in how we manage our human resources. This includes ensuring that our workload is distributed evenly and that everyone has the support they need to avoid burnout. We cannot stand for a better world if we do not take care of our own first!
