If you’ve found your way to Northern Edge Algonquin, you might be asking yourself: “What is a corporate retreat?”
Corporate retreats, also called company retreats, business retreats, and offsites, can have many benefits for small teams and large companies alike. In general, corporate retreats last 2 – 4 days and involve team members or leaders within an organization going away to a destination together where they may:
- Have important conversations about the business outside of the regular work environment
- Eat, sleep, and enjoy fun activities together in a specific destination
- Build connection by experiencing facilitated team-building activities
- Boost moral by spending dedicated social time with co-workers
- Relax and rebuild resilience by unplugging and focusing on self-care
It’s a simple concept, and one that has been used by many organizations for many years. There are small retreats, where 2 or 3 business partners might book an Airbnb and endeavour to plan out their business strategies in comfort – and there are large retreats, where a company might send 200 employees to a large camp to act like kids again. There are company retreat ideas for every price range, from tent-camping to incentive trips in far away destinations.
