Employees celebrating Montani's !st year anniversary via online meet

You ask what’s the plan?

These were the details:

Number 1: Fun sounds like a plan. 

Don’t exclude dopamine inducing activities and include physical activity to trigger the feel-good hormones. In this way, everyone may feel tired with the physical movements but  we  must  give  our  body  and  brain  a  dose  of  reward  and  invite  serotonin  and adrenaline  and  the  happy  hormones  gang  is  complete.  So  in  this  way,  everyone  is happy and healthy.

In  consideration  to  the  outsider  who  may  not  understand  what  was  written  above. Here’s for the context. Team Montani had to go through weeks of serious deliberation and discussion on how we can incorporate physical exercise in our wfh employees who maybe  sitting  longer  hours  of  work  in  the  demise  of  their  spinal  cords  and  sleeping hearts.

Therefore, ladies and gentlemen, in the spirit of celebrating our first-year anniversary, for a total of gazillion English words spent in conversation both written and verbal, with some  dramas  in  between  in  the  form  of  disagreement  and  agreement  like  lovers  in quarrel but nothing that leads to breakups – the settlement has arrived. And yes, you’ve just read the longest sentence in this composition ever. Thank you for your patience.

Number 2: Fitness is the new Chanel

After  the  grand  introduction  for  the  decision,  we  have  agreed  upon.  I  share  with  you now the summary of the details:

March 14, 2023 (Tuesday) at 9AM: A huddle started. 
Boss: What’s up?
Me: Caffeine just kickin vibin in my bloodstream.
Boss: We celebrating next month. You need to be poppin some plannin.
Me: Chill boss, I know the vibe.
Boss: Deal.
Me: Periodt.


March 14, 2023 (Tuesday) at 9:01 AM: You and the boss had a huddle for 1 min and # Shakespeare left the group. 

In another consideration to the readers who lack the familiarity to the writer’s sense of humour. Here’s for the context. Team Montani have decided to align our activities with our  anniversary’s  theme:  “One  Year  in  Motion:  Montani's  Anniversary  Celebration  of Fitness and Productivity”. 

Yes, fitness and productivity are the fashion accessible for all, currency needed is your time and your body, and when you go out and head to the gym don’t forget to wrap your body with the right dry fit shirt, preferably the one that has our company logo stamped on.

Going back to our theme, we celebrated with the sporty style. We wanted to promote physical wellness and encourage everyone to engage in activities that promote mental and physical health. Of course, the best way to do this was to uphold our sports-themed celebration  as  the  only  and  perfect  opportunity  to  hit  the,  we  will  not  be  hitting  any birds, but to hit 2 targets in one stone.


Number 3: Execution is in the action

For  a  total  of  four  teams  with  each  team  member  pushed  to  contemplate  their commitment  to  their  health  and  wellness,  and  to  pound  their  muscle  memory  to  try their  best  to  remember  the  last  time  they  thought  of  playing  a  sport,  they  were sweating in anticipation of what the other member could be thinking that may not fit the style of the others, but as a team, you have to sacrifice your preferences. And yes, you have just read the second longest sentence in this composition. Anyways, at this point of their discussions, Nike’s famous “Just do it” echoed in their minds.

One employee was in the verge of surrendering to a mukbang but no, we say break to fat hormones and employ delay gratification tactics.

To execute our theme the following are each team’s chosen sport:

Team 1: Badminton
Team 2: Bodybuilding
Team 3: Badminton (because 1 badminton is not enough)
Team 4: Parkour (because the world is your playground)

Number 4: I have now decided to end it in this number

Overall, the sports-themed celebration was a great success. It allowed everyone to take a break from work and engage in activities that promoted physical wellness and mental well-being.  It  also  created  a  sense  of  unity  and  camaraderie  among  employees  who have been working remotely since the beginning of their time here at Montani.

You ask, was this achieved?

A good survey can extract the right data but for the general impression of the event – sure thing everyone had a blast. 

How did I know? I was there and what you have read was my testimony.

Can my words perceived to represent the truth?

Yes, because you have to write another article if you beg to differ.

Here’s another conclusion because just like badminton, one conclusion is not enough. Our sports-themed celebration was a testament to the importance of physical wellness in the workplace. By promoting physical activity and encouraging everyone to engage in activities that promote both mental and physical health, we were able to create a fun and  engaging  event  that  brought  everyone  together.  We  hope  to  continue  promoting physical  wellness  in  the  future  and  look  forward  to  more  successful  and  exciting celebrations.


Happy 1st anniversary Montani!

Cheers to more years to come until all our hair turns to gray.
