Community – Fun and Friendship
Most of Synergy’s success is down to the hard work of our colleagues who we like to reward with a variety of events which are not only fun but help with team bonding. Here are a few of the events that have taken place recently.
Heritage Day – celebrating South Africa’s beautiful rainbow nation by dressing up in traditional outfits. Heritage Day is also celebrated across all cultures with the authentic South African braai (similar to a barbeque) where friends and families gather for some delicious food and conversation.
Synergy took advantage by hosting The Ultimate Braai Master Challenge – teams needed to prepare and cook a starter and main meal in the braai within 75 minutes. The winning duo won R1,500 to spend with their teams, the runners up won large portable braai stands and the 3rd place won Springbok rugby camp chairs.
Monthly awards
Top performing staff are awarded with certificates and Synergy branded gifts on a monthly basis.
Casual Day
In support of people with disabilities, Casual Day allows us to raise funds for charities across South Africa by simply purchasing a Casual Day sticker. Synergy was delighted to contribute R1,500 from sticker purchases.
X-FACTOR
O2 hosted a 12-week X-Factor competition, where agents had to nominate their best calls. Calls were audited internally and externally looking for the best customer experience and ensuring full compliance on calls. The top three agents were awarded amazing prizes: 1st won a two night stay for two at the Holiday Inn at Umhlanga, 2nd prize was a microlight flight for two and 3rd place won a zipline tour for two.
Synergy Kids
Each month, we invite our children to participate in a design competition. Each child receives a small gift for participation and the top three in three different age categories receive a gift hamper related to the theme.
