Every organization has a culture. The culture of a successful law firm is likely very different from the culture of a restaurant group, and for good reason. The important thing is to consider how you can be intentional about fostering a healthy workplace culture that benefits your employees and your business.

Adults come to your event with high expectations, an existing knowledge base, and fixed ideas about what does and does not work. When creating learning and retention events, it’s imperative that your event sessions inspire attendees, change their mindsets, and drive performance.

While offsite meetings are a great opportunity for teams to come together and collectively solve a larger problem or plan out a period of work, you’ve likely also discovered that loving the idea of a company offsite and implementing a company offsite are wildly different. An offsite’s success is largely determined by what takes place before it convenes. Use this checklist to make sure you’re ticking off the big-ticket items for your offsite.

It’s not always clear what the ROI is when an offsite is said and done. If created intentionally, with the right people in the same place at the same time —whether virtual or in-person or both— with clear heads and sustainable mental energy, offsites can provide space for everyone to focus on big picture issues that will drive the needle for your business the following year. If your offsites have felt sluggish or lacked clear indicators of ROI, use these key strategies to build your next winning offsite format.
