Are you looking to strengthen your team’s relationships and collaborative working process with a fun activity? Well look no further! Virtual Reality (VR) is a great opportunity for employees to engage in an immersive experience while building stronger working connections. In addition, VR also helps to focus on team success skills such as communication, teamwork and problem-solving. Wherever your employees may be stationed—in-person, hybrid, or remote—everyone can participate while using this interactive piece of technology!

Examples of Virtual Reality Team Building Exercises

VR offers a variety of exercise activities that touches on everyone’s interests. Here are a few examples to engage your employees:

  • Pictionary – A charades-inspired drawing and guessing game with time limits.
  • Scavenger Hunts – Race against the clock as teams search for items scattered around a virtual world.
  • Escape Rooms – Solve puzzles with different levels of complexity to unlock the key to escape the room.
  • Employee Training Courses – Team members can work together to learn new skills necessary to complete their roles.

VR Advantages

VR is a cost-effective way to strengthen your team’s internal core! As an alternative to spending costs on transportation, accommodation and other expenses on traditional team-building events, you can bring this technology right to your office or off-site location.

But does VR really help with team building? According to a 2021 PwC article, VR learners are 275% more confident to apply skills learned after training and are 3.75x more emotionally connected to content learned from VR.

Sustainable Technology Solutions for Your CSR Plan

What sustainable practices has your organization incorporated into your Corporate Social Responsibility plan? A great place to start is by redeploying your old IT assets. Throughout the pandemic, employees many shifted to remote environments, offices were left empty, and IT devices sat to collect dust. But did you know that you can get money back from your existing equipment?

On top of the economic value that you will receive from redeploying your assets, it will also help to better our planet. You can make the most of your CSR plan by refreshing your office IT equipment, supporting your returning workforce with device upgrades or creating a positive plan of action if you are planning or downsize or close an office.

What is a Corporate Social Responsibility plan?

Unsure of what a CSR plan entails? We’ve got you covered!

A Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) plan is “a self-regulating business model that helps a company be socially accountable to itself, its stakeholders, and the public. By practicing corporate social responsibility, companies can be conscious of the kind of impact they are having on all aspects of society, including economic, social, and environmental,” (Investopedia, 2022).

Engaging in a CSR plan means an organization is carrying out ways to promote positive social, environmental, and sustainable practices instead of contributing negatively to them.

Examples of Sustainable CSR Practices:

  • Optimize your device lifecycle with ITAD & redeployment services
  • Switch off office lights and equipment when not in use
  • Create a walk or bike to work program
  • Use recycling and compost bins in the workplace

Sustainable Technology with Vernon & DCR

Vernon and DCR provide seamless and quick ITAD & redeployment services to supercharge your CSR plan and provide a monetary value for your existing IT equipment. Go green and contact us today to learn more about our ITAD services.
