It also provides the opportunity for co-workers to meet and get to know other employees that aren’t in their department, or that they don’t see around the office during their regular days for a variety of reasons, providing an opportunity for networking within the company..

Reduce Stress and Boost Productivity
Everyone knows that long stretches of all-work-and-no-play could make any one of us burnt out and stressed. Breaking the monotony in a way that encourages co-workers to unwind without worrying about the deadlines and have fun together for a while can bring them back to work refreshed and ready to continue productively.

Creative Problem Solving
Nothing promotes problem solving like a murder mystery! With Broadway Murder Mysteries you’re given a wide variety of themes to grab the attention of your colleagues and during the process of solving the case, they’ll be encouraged to work as a team, thoroughly examine evidence, and come up with creative solutions that can translate into collaborative work and better problem solving during business hours.
