Work From Home + Employee Engagement? Here’s how to make it happen with digital engagement activities that keep your teams connected and motivated—even during quarantine.
When your employees across offices worldwide need to be engaged, is your first thought: HOW?
It’s time to bust the myth that large-scale engagement is expensive. By going digital, you can connect all employees under one virtual roof—because every office, team, and employee matters.
How Can You Engage Employees at Home?
Engaging employees digitally is easier than you think. From online contests like selfies and talent showcases, to games such as Monopoly or multi-level induction challenges, to fun knowledge quizzes—digital engagement is all about creating an online community that learns, communicates, and works together.
By choosing the digital path, you can build a digital workforce where employee engagement becomes a natural part of remote work life.
Top 5 Digital Engagement Activities for Remote Employees
Just like the employee life cycle, a strong digital engagement strategy can support your workforce from start to finish:
- Pre-onboarding: Interactive formats that excite employees before Day 1.
- Induction: Gamified modules and customized digital games.
- Values & Culture: Quick online quizzes to reinforce company values.
- Continuous Feedback: Gamified environments that make feedback fun.
- Celebrations & Recognition: Daily, weekly, or monthly appreciation and festive events.
Add to this digital portals for alignment, motivational programs, and online team-building activities, and you pave the way for a productive, connected, and happy workplace—digitally.
What is a Digital MasterChef?
One of the most popular engagement activities among our partners is the MasterChef Challenge (also called the Food Stock Exchange). Don’t worry—there’s no Gordon Ramsay yelling at you in this one! But it isn’t easy either.
Here’s how it works:
- Employees form teams to prepare and present a 3-course meal to a jury.
- Ingredients are limited—and must be earned, bartered, or negotiated.
- The challenge calls for teamwork, creativity, and leadership under pressure.
When executed digitally, the fun is doubled! Employees can participate alongside their families, making it not only an engagement activity but also a bonding experience. Cooking with limited resources builds problem-solving, adaptability, and collaboration—qualities every organization values, especially in uncertain times.
