Why Add Spa To Your Meetings
Your skill with people will probably affect your business life more than any other factor. Try treating your employees to a spa treatment and make them feel special and appreciated. It’s also a great way to reward your staff for a job well done.
The Bourget Inn & Spa offers a variety of 30 minute treatments specially designed for meeting groups so your primary focus remains a productive business meeting. Treatments can usually be scheduled at the end of your day between your meeting and dinner.
If you're looking for more relaxation try setting an afternoon aside for spa treatments, snacks and refreshments, and relaxing in the hot tub. During the summer months you may also enjoy the outdoor pool and patio.
Spa treatments have now surpassed golf as the number one business meeting activity!
The Importance of Great Food
Breaks for meals may be the only time your group spends away from the meeting room, so it's important they enjoy that time with great food. Here are a few tips to ensure the food is a success at your next business meeting.
Requesting allergies and dietary restrictions from your team is a great idea. Every meeting venue will be pleased to accommodate them.
When ordering a continental breakfast ensure the coffee is of good quality, there is plenty of fresh fruit and there are some healthy alternatives to danishes and the like.
Most groups like a private room or area for their meals. This will allow the group to stay together and continue meeting discussions if you wish. Another advantage for groups is dining in a separate room, it’s a great change of scenery to help refocus and relax.
Country Setting Advantages
Today in our connected world disconnecting for a short time is important to creative thinking and concentration. A country setting will help in the same way. Without the city sounds and busy people everywhere your team can relax and take a breath of fresh air.
Stepping away from the office for a short respite will help your team refocus on the future and on what’s important for the success on your organization.
It’s as important to take a vacation with your family as it to take a respite to think clearly and plan your organization’s future.
