Corporate event planning in Gurugram: a checklist for HR and admin teams
Plan corporate events in Gurugram six to eight weeks ahead: fix the goal, headcount and budget per head, shortlist venues near your office or on Golf Course Road and Sohna Road, choose entertainment that suits a mixed crowd, and plan transport, food and safety in detail. Keep one owner accountable on the day.
Types of corporate events
| Event | Typical goal |
|---|---|
| Annual day or town hall | Recognition and alignment |

The checklist
- Goal, date, headcount and budget per head.
