Schlumberger United Way 2021 Campaign — Virtual Event
Event Date: Mar 12, 2021
I am organizing a charity event on behalf of our organization to support the United Way. I would like to arrange a 'BYO lunch and listen to a speaker' type of event. As nearly all of our employees across the United States are working from home, this would have to be a virtual event. I'm thinking employees could call in at noon, the speaker could talk about teamwork, service differentiation, creativity, etc... take a Q&A if applicable. I see this being a zoom call with 30-100 employees of different functions, sales, HR, engineering, etc. Employees across the organization will attend, from leadership, sales, HR, account managers to engineers The most important as quality would be entertaining. We’re asking employees to donate and spend their lunch to hear something fun, engaging, or memorable. As the event date is right around the corner, the speech topic is more open: Attitude, Community Relations, Creativity, Innovation, Listening Skills, Productivity, Strategic Planning, Time Management, Business, Competition, Energy (Oil), Inspirational, Communication, Customer Service, Workforce, Vision/Purpose, Management
