How We Created a Pandemic-Resistant Team Building Session (Interactive)

Life in 2020 has been challenging, dramatically altering the way we work. Companies that never considered remote work were forced to adapt, allowing employees to work from home. However, not everyone had ideal conditions at home to create a suitable workspace.

Since Spain first went into lockdown, Graphext has welcomed 10 new team members, making up almost half of the company. Transitioning to remote work in March led to several unusual months where team members collaborated daily without really knowing each other.

Motivated by the desire to connect with our new colleagues, the design team brainstormed ways to create an engaging team-building session within the constraints of the pandemic. We focused on making the session interactive and enjoyable despite the remote setting.
