August 21, 2013

Richard Cohen was quoted in The Street article "How to Keep the Work Party From Getting Too Crazy." While the full text can be found in the August 21, 2013, issue of The Street, a synopsis is noted below. 

While a friendly environment at a business can be a good thing, it can become easy to spend too much time and money partying and end up overstepping HR guidelines. 

The key, according to Richard Cohen, is finding a happy medium. "You don't have to have just a plain old lunch. There are lots of different types of events you can have with alcohol and lots of ways you can be smart about it," Cohen says. 

"Having a limited amount of drink vouchers is a great strategy, because you know exactly how much people will be allowed to drink, and exactly how much you'll be spending," says Cohen.
