A Company Dinner & Dance

A Company Dinner & Dance

A company dinner and dance is a good way to reward to employees who have been working hard for the company. Many companies choose to use dinner and dance as one of their internal corporate event as the time taken for the event to be completed is typically about 2-3 hours. It does not take up much of the personal time of staff, especially when it’s usually held in the evenings or after-office hours.

There are many benefits that be found in holding this event. It encourages cohesion between the staff of all levels and helps break down barriers between superiors & subordinates and between the higher management and lower management staffs. It is also a good avenue for staffs to interact with others from different departments in which they may have lesser interaction during working hours.

Project Scope Statement

A project scope defines what the project is supposed to accomplish. The success of the project depends largely on the budget and time allocated. Precise and detailed definition of the project scope with money and time required is a good start for a successful project. (Reh, 2014)

The main objective of this project is to have a dinner and dance event for the staffs as a show of appreciation by the company to thank them for the past year of hard work and effort put in for the continued success of the company.

The deliverables for this project is making sure the staffs are having a good time and letting the staffs know that the company appreciates the effort put in for the past year.

There are there major milestones for this project. The first will be confirming the total head count of the staffs that will be attending this event. We have decided not to deem attendance as compulsory but immediate superiors will be tasked to encourage the attendance of their subordinates. The second milestone will be confirming the date and location of the event that will be held. The location must be big enough to accommodate the attendees and the date to be confirmed to allow time needed for attendees to make the necessary arrangement to attend the event. The third milestone will be making the necessary transport arrangements to ferry the staffs over. We will be encouraging car-pooling. Staffs that will be driving are encouraged to assist in ferrying their fellow colleagues to the location.

The only technical requirement is the private ball room booked must be big enough to accommodate all staffs comfortably.

As this is a private company event, only staffs are allowed to attend. Alcoholic beverages are not included but it can be ordered from the bar at own expense.

Priority Matrix

Time is a constraint in this project as we would like the staffs arrives on time so that we could start the event promptly. The time for the event to end should also be prompt to allow staffs the flexibility to make any arrangements that they might have after the event.
