Overview

Attendance is mandatory. Enjoyment is strongly encouraged.

Every organization eventually decides that morale can be scheduled.

The result may be a unit picnic, office holiday party, employee-engagement event, team-building exercise, organizational retreat, fun run, or some other carefully planned opportunity to enjoy yourself at a designated time and location.

Mandatory Fun Survival Guide treats these events with exactly the level of operational planning they do not require.

Written in the style of an absurdly serious military training circular, this field guide walks readers through the complete Mandatory Fun operational lifecycle-from the first suspicious "Save the Date" through mission analysis, pre-combat checks, course-of-action development, execution, extraction, and the inevitable after-action review.

Inside, readers will learn how to:

  • Recognize the early warning indicators of Mandatory Fun
  • Select a defensible social position
  • Develop and execute an appropriate survival COA
  • Use Controlled Participation without becoming part of the program
  • Form a Small Contact Team
  • Navigate food, photography, leadership, and structured-activity hazards
  • Avoid the Competence Trap and the dreaded appointment as next year's event NCOIC
  • Conduct a clean extraction without creating administrative requirements for Future You
  • And, at the highest level, stop merely surviving Mandatory Fun and actually enjoy it

Military veterans will recognize the doctrine immediately. Civilian employees will recognize the mission.

Because the Army never had a monopoly on mandatory fun.

It was simply more honest about the mandatory part.
