Could These Company Retreat Ideas Unite Your
Workforce?

• Keeping a workforce happy and productive often
  takes a lot of effort on the part of companies
  and their HR teams, but its rare that it isnt
  worth that effort.
• Company retreats are a fantastic way for bringing
  employees together, and sometimes, even the
  simplest of events can achieve great things. From
  learning experiences to team building activities
  and informal socializing, a company retreat could
  be just what your workforce needs to unite them,
  and here are some ideas

• A scavenger hunt
• Scavenger hunts are a fantastic way of getting to
  know a city or town, and where you choose to host
  the hunt can be a source of inspiration for
  clues, as can the history of your company.
• An escape room
• Having sprung up all over the world in recent
  years, escape rooms are a cost effective way for
  small teams to collaborate and solve problems
  together while having fun, and they dont involve
  multiple locations with multiple transport
  issues.

• Cookery classes
• You might be surprised to learn just how many of
  your workforce are in fact, passionate home
  cooks, and a group cookery class could help
  strengthen their bonds while indulging their love
  of cooking and their tastebuds, too.
• A trip to the movies
• Renting out a movie theater might be more
  affordable than you think, and you could arrange
  for your team to see a new blockbuster movie
  together, or watch an old classic.

• Host a games night
• Simple but effective, a games night with some
  traditional board games that everyone knows how
  to play such as Monopoly or Scrabble can help
  your team bond over some friendly
  competitiveness.
• Food tasting
• While wine tasting is a fun event for a group,
  not everyone enjoys wine or even drinks alcohol,
  so for an alcohol-free alternative, why not
  organize a food tasting event for your team? From
  cheese and gourmet ice creams, to olives and
  chocolate, pick your foods and make sure your
  team are hungry!

• Karaoke
• This is a team bonding classic, and whether you
  can sing or not, karaoke is such a fun way to
  break the ice and loosen up peoples defences.
• Have a big meeting
• Meetings dont have to be boring and stuffy, get
  your employees out of their usual work
  environment and host a meeting for brainstorming,
  learning and listening to one another concerns or
  queries.

• Go to a game
• You dont have to be into sports to enjoy a
  sports event, and if you go with the aim of
  getting to know your colleagues and having fun,
  you might just become a sports fan!
• It always makes sense to invest in your
  workforce, and if youre an employer searching
  for ideas to help unite your team and bring them
  closer together for the benefit of your business,
  you need look no further than a company retreat.
  Additionally, if youre struggling to manage your
  workforce and need help from a HR professional,
  why not consider outsourcing this important
  function to ease some of the burden from your
  shoulders.
