NovelVox, a leading provider of advanced and integrated solutions for the contact center industry, brought a unique concept of a workation that combines business with leisure to its employees, setting a new trend with its workation initiative.

The company organized a workation for its employees in the beautiful mountains of Ranikhet. As the pandemic opened up new ways of collaboration and working, workation is one such opportunity to increase team bonding, improve employee wellbeing, and help employees escape the monotony of remote working.

This ‘work get-together’ allowed the employees to meet in person and relive some of the memories of pre-Covid times. The workation was a refreshing alternative to the virtual stand-ups that the teams were used to. The teams were not only productive during the workation, but also showcased their talents and got to know others in the organization on a more personal level. The ‘work from anywhere’ concept is novel to many organizations, bringing refreshing and innovative ideas for the business. This workation from NovelVox was proof of that.

NovelVox also onboarded a batch of freshers at this venue, giving them a fresh start. A detailed and lively induction in a beautiful location is a rarity in the industry but ideal for sharing knowledge, experience, and aspirations.

Amit Gandhi, CEO NovelVox, says, “I have noticed many positive aftereffects of the workation, such as enhanced team strength, coherence, and improved performance. The relaxing stay amidst the beautiful surroundings of Ranikhet was a much-needed break for our employees after a prolonged period of remote working that confined them to home and the desktop. Despite the challenges of not meeting their team members in person and working virtually, their creativity, innovative penchant, and enthusiasm remained high. NovelVox is lucky to have such a high-spirited team.”

The company witnessed immense growth in 2021 on the business front and also in terms of employee strength. Its headcount increased by 42% in 2021, with very low attrition even though the industry’s attrition rate was very high.

NovelVox created a ‘new normal’ trend of workation for achieving employee satisfaction, engagement, and wellbeing, thus leading the way.
