As for social activities I always find that organized events become organic as people become relaxed. Co-workers can always go out in their own cliques after work, but in my opinion it's about bringing everyone together so they can work as a team instead of individuals.

I've only done a hundred of those at my corporation, and enough to know that I don't usually like other people's cookin'! Honestly, I've grown quite tired of all the social activities designed to bring the team together. I enjoy the camaraderie with my peers, but I need it to feel more organic rather than organized.

You make a good point. So many holiday parties are an excuse to just show yourself. We need to create an environment that stimulates fun instead of promoting the same old thing.
