Celebrate at Work:

If you have ample time to plan, create the whole day in the office around international women's day. You can also bring the speakers to address the important gender-focused issues, sponsor your employees to attend the women's event, or talk to your CEO to give a presentation on what your company is working and raise women in the workplace. 

Hold your Company's Version of this Year's with the Theme #BalanceforBetter Campaign: 

According to the IWD's official website, this year's International women's Day theme is balanced for better and runs through a year-long campaign to advocate the balance that will drive a better working world. There is a special focus on creating gender balance, for example, in the boardroom and wealth. This year IWD has provided the balance better selfie cards to promote this action via social media channels. To show your organization support, get your employees to download these cards, then the second this you have to do is write notes on how they play their part in advocating for the gender balance and pose. 

Recognize Women Employees as Role Models:

Monthly and annual awards, whether they are big or small, are common. So why not have one specially to commemorate IWD too? Let your staff share how their women colleagues have inspired them in different ways, or you can also make a valuable contribution to them personally or by their work. You can even put up some of the testimonials on the organization's social media channels to highlight these champions and, of course, build your employer brand. 

Allow Employees to Inspire and Get Inspired: 

Permit an employee to share the stories about the women in their lives. Who are their pillar of strengths and the inspirational figures? The best time for this event is the end-of-day office gathering on the IWD itself or an impromptu office party to celebrate the day. It is the best and meaningful way to get the employees reflecting on the roles that the women play in their lives while also allowing everyone to bond through their sharing. 

Organize an Office Game Session:

Well-planned games can get the staff in the mood to participate and gives everyone the chance to allow their hair down and bond away from their desks. At the international women's day celebration, you can also organize the themed games to add a twist to the event.

Guess Who? 

In this game, you have to gather everyone around and request then to fill up five random facts about them that no one knows and jumble them all up. Then the second step is to take a turn by guessing who's that the facts belong. The game reinforces the importance of not stereotyping women and men based on what you perceive them to be or associating them with certain characteristics. It will allow them to find these colleagues a little better. 

Decorate the Office:

The best way to involve your employees in the celebration is to decorate the purple office, which is the color of international women's day. The second step is to put the inspirational poster around the space and place the purple balloons on the tables or create your mood board. You can also hold a gathering the night before and make these decorations in the groups to encourage team bonding. To increase the visibility and spread the message, we share it on our platform and integrate it into the office's TVs. This way, everyone feels more connected to love and international women's day.

Ask All the Employees to Wear Purple: 

To keep with the theme of purple, you have to ask all your employees to wear purple to support the day. The day centered on inclusivity and balance, and wearing the people is a super-easy way to set the office's tone.

Take Social Pictures to Share on Social Media: 

The international women's day website forces people to share balance better and IWD photos on social media and spread this message. Furthermore, with the theme of balance, people are encouraged to stand with their arms up and mimic a balance beam of the sort to symbolize that everyone has a part to play in shaping the entire world's future.
