In 2021, Strapi, a remote-first company with employees across different time zones, organized two virtual retreats to foster team connections and build collective memories, especially important after two years of pandemic-induced separation. The events, characterized by interactive and diverse activities such as cooking, origami, and discussions on digital wellness, aimed to avoid Zoom fatigue and maintain participants' engagement through breaks and challenges like a 100 steps walk. The retreats were organized with careful attention to inclusivity and cultural diversity, involving Strapiers in leading activities to enhance engagement and share personal skills. The planning process included gathering feedback from past events and surveying employee preferences to ensure a tailored experience. The retreats were deemed a success, evidenced by positive feedback and a high Net Promoter Score of 82, demonstrating the importance of meticulous organization and communication in virtual event planning.
