Why do company retreats matter?
Allow employees to get to know each other outside of work
Create a real, human connection among employees
“Magic and energy burst when we get together in person. Bursts of understanding, when we can read beyond someone’s words. Bursts of trust when we support each other with honest gestures. Bursts of inspiration when we solve hard problems and create new things together. Bursts of laughter, when we generate the safe space to enjoy the little ironies of life. And bursts of awareness, when we realize that we are in the same boat.”
Re-energize your team
Boost creativity and productivity
