Around 80 of the company\u2019s 750 worldwide employees live near St. Petersburg, Florida, and could attend an in-person event. But plenty of others don\u2019t live near its sole U.S. office \u2014 and remote events can be uniquely challenging, according to Melanie.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">\u201cWellness efforts for onsite events are much easier to plan,\u201d she says. She believes onsite events tend to drive better results because of elements like decorations and publicly posted event reminders that pandas encounter when they come to the office. \u201cFor the remote environment, unless you send somebody a calendar invite and you constantly ping them and remind them, they tend to forget about stuff like that.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Yet even with these challenges, <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Melanie works hard to strike a balance with her wellness events, offering opportunities to engage both online and in-person. <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">When her team hosts a fun wellness event onsite, she goes out of her way to offer a virtual event the same month to ensure distributed employees feel included.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">One month, PandaDoc hosted a virtual \u201cPaint and Sip\u201d event, shipping cocktail and mocktail kits to remote employees. That same month, in-person employees came to the office for a fitness rally. \u201c[Those are] two different types of events,\u201d Melanie notes. \u201c[They\u2019re] both fun, but totally different.\u201d<\/span><\/p><h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 18pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>Wellness by Committee<\/span><\/h2><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Luckily, Melanie doesn\u2019t have to go it alone when creating a happy, healthy workplace. Because she handles benefits for all U.S. PandaDoc employees, wellness initiatives fall on her plate. But she created a wellness committee, inviting her fellow pandas to contribute their ideas and their time to build wellness into the company culture.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; white-space-collapse: preserve;\">She put out a call on Slack for committee members and created a wellness Slack channel as well to drive excitement for the initiatives. Now, Melanie and four other employees meet monthly to plan the calendar of wellness events, evaluate each past event and brainstorm ways to improve participation. <\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Wellness committees benefit from having members who aren\u2019t <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">just <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">from the<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">HR department.<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"> \u201cWe want all types of voices,\u201d Melanie explains, noting that her committee includes an engineer, someone from finance and a marketing team member. \u201cIt\u2019s nice to have voices from different areas of the company to be able to pitch in and say, <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: italic; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Hey, I&#8217;ve got an idea.<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; white-space-collapse: preserve;\">Even on a tight wellness budget, the diversity of ideas lets Melanie think big and get creative with the resources she has.<\/span><\/p><h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 18pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>Measuring the Success of a Wellness Event<\/span><\/h2><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">How do you define the success of an event? You might think it comes down to the number of participants, but according to Melanie, it\u2019s a bit more nuanced than that.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; white-space-collapse: preserve;\"><br \/>For instance, PandaDoc hosted a terrarium-building event focused on mindfulness. The educational program taught participants about various succulent types, substrates and best practices for helping the plants thrive. <\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>The pandas in attendance built something to put on their desks and later shared photos on Slack. \u201cIt was a really good experience,\u201d Melanie says. Plus, out of the 30 people who registered to attend the event, \u201cNot one person didn\u2019t show. We had full participation.\u201d Both the attendance numbers <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: italic; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">and <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">people\u2019s eagerness to talk about the event indicated that terrarium-building had been a clear success.<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>On the other hand, low attendance isn\u2019t inherently a sign of an unsuccessful event<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">, like with PandaDoc\u2019s virtual game show event. Out of 25 people who signed up to attend, only 10 people showed up. But those 10 attendees had a great time. \u201cThey were talking, they had so much fun, they invited their families \u2014 they got everybody involved,\u201d Melanie recalls.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>What\u2019s more, the pandas in attendance talked about the event well after the fact, lamenting that their co-workers hadn\u2019t joined and hoping for another event like it in the future. <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Attendees\u2019 energy and excitement can indicate success that goes far beyond attendance numbers.<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>Social events are key for helping a distributed team like PandaDoc\u2019s feel connected. As Melanie says, \u201cHere\u2019s your opportunity to spend some time together and do something fun with your coworkers. \u2026 Just take some time, take an hour and relax and have a good time and do something that you normally would not do.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>It\u2019s a particularly good year for PandaDoc to focus on these connection-focused events. Each year, they focus on one of their core values, and 2023 is the year of fun. What could be more fun than a wellness event with your co-workers, both near and far?<\/span><\/p><h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 18pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>Quick Tips for a Wellness Culture<\/span><\/h2><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Melanie\u2019s years of experience in HR and culture-building have given her a wealth of knowledge to share with others, like her advice to look for free or low-cost resources when running wellness initiatives on a tight budget.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Another best practice she would offer to other HR teams? <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Don\u2019t take it personally if an event doesn\u2019t go as planned, she says.<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"> \u201cIf something doesn\u2019t work and it bombs completely, it\u2019s not your fault. \u2026 You can\u2019t feel like a failure\u2026.You\u2019ve done your best.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Of course, one of the best ways to cope with the less-successful events and celebrate the wins is to have a core group of people around you like PandaDoc\u2019s wellness committee. \u201cEnlist the help of your co-workers,\u201d she explains. \u201cYou need a hive mind. You need those other people to bounce ideas off of, to give suggestions [and] to input their ideas.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Like many of the best things in life, wellness is better done <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: italic; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">together. <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">So find your people, link arms with them and build the kind of company culture you want to see.<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\">\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-style: italic; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space-collapse: preserve;\">This article is based on an episode of the Virtual Vibe podcast by <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/brightbreaks.com\/\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #1155cc; background-color: transparent; font-style: italic; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; text-decoration-line: underline; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space-collapse: preserve;\">Bright Breaks<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-style: italic; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space-collapse: preserve;\">, the platform that boosts workplace wellness seven minutes at a time.
