BrownBagIt

Brown Bag It, provides employees with an alternative to the traditional workshop or training experiences. The Brown Bag It event, as the title suggests, is usually held in a more relaxed atmosphere -- like that over the lunch hour! What better time time to provide a workshop for your staff. Arranged correctly, this time period can remove the usual stressors of the day such as the telephone, communication in and outside the company, the fax machine, copier, and on and on.

Brown Bag It events afford employees an opportunity to take a break from the day's normal routine, associate with co-workers, at all levels, and gain some nourishment for body and mind.

Whether a single event or a number of planned Brown Bag It events or groups prior planning is critical for immediate success and long term carry-over or application in the work environment. Participating staff should have the mind set and view of Brown Bag It training events as time for learning in a relaxed environment.
