10 reasons to rent a team building venue

It's all very well to say that you're only as good as your staff, but our experience of team breaks andin-house events is such that we'd be hard pressed to disprove the saying. 

Whether you're celebrating a success with your staff or communicating a new strategy, we'll explain in ten points why privatizing a venue for a corporate seminar has many advantages.

Reason no. 1: Stay in a "nugget" location with your colleagues

Unclassifiable, atypical, baroque, whimsical or soothing... For an original corporate seminar, there's nothing like offering your teams the chance to invest in a place that leaves them speechless. There's no secret to finding it. If you don't want to spend your nights scrolling through Google results pages, calling in a specialist is the best solution.

Inviting your employees to enjoy this space is a great way of thanking them for their efforts. If you hear "Ahs" and "Waouhs" as you push open the door, you've already won part of the bet! 

Reason no. 2: Access to a turnkey offer for your team break

There's much more to a corporate seminar than booking a venue. Meals, workshops and entertainment also need to be planned. And just as many questions arise. What type of caterer should you choose? How do you find a team-building activity that all employees can get behind? Where can I find a reliable service provider in the resort region?

Booking a venue for a team building seminar also means having access to a reliable address book and a network of carefully selected partners.

Reason no. 3: Benefit from expert advice on business trips

When you book a venue for your in-house event with a service provider, you'll be talking to experts who'll discuss a whole range of topics with you: travel to and from the event, how the day will run, objectives, etc.

These companies have acquired extensive expertise which they can pass on to you. They draw on the experience of their customers to advise you, for example, on managing the budget for your seminar, or designing its program.

Reason no. 4: Privatize a seminar venue and focus on the essentials

You're responsible for organizing the company seminar, but you'll also be taking part as a member of the company. You need to be fully present to participate in the group dynamics. You'll need your full attention, and you won't be able to manage last-minute contingencies.

Reason no. 5: Living in a setting that encourages creativity

Leave to return. To fill up on innovative ideas, set sail for an unknown destination. What happens when you leave as a team to work in a different environment? You get to know each other, and conversations can take on a more personal dimension. And at work, it's not uncommon to untangle a situation that seemed inextricable, with the brain trapped between the 4 walls of the office.

We deactivate the autopilot mode. You take the same route every day. You probably have your coffee at the same time, and perhaps, just like at the family table, each team member sits in the same place in the meeting room. While these habits are reassuring, they can leave you lacking in boldness or imagination when it comes to devising your action plans.

You don't have to go far to break the routine, but a seminar in the Paris region works just as well. In the heart of an unexplored territory, the senses are sharpened. In short, it breathes new life into your projects. 

Reason no. 6: Let yourself be stimulated by another workspace

You need to review strategy or plan a marketing campaign. To make sure you brainstorm over a long period of time with the various stakeholders involved, you can set off to give these missions a big boost.

The work environment plays a particular role in employee performance. Finding peace and quiet in a house in the countryside can quite simply improve the quality of work for employees. For example, according to an Ifop study, one working person in two says they are bothered by noise.

Reason n°7 : Test new ways of cooperating by renting a country house

With the rise of telecommuting and flex-office, ways of collaborating have changed dramatically in recent years. Companies are inventing new formats, such as green coworking, and choosing to diversify their workspaces. This seminar could be just the thing to familiarize you with these new trends.

Reason no. 8: Don't postpone your in-house event for lack of time

Whether it's talent retention you need to increase, team cohesion you need to improve, or communication you need to make more effective, your HR issues don't have to wait to be addressed. If you've identified issues that could impact the company's success, it's in your interest not to postpone your next internal event just because you're running out of time to plan it.

Reason no. 9: Peace of mind during team building

By having a single point of contact, rather than a list of service providers to notify or follow up, you'll enjoy the serenity of your business trip. You'll avoid breaking out in a cold sweat the night before you leave (you know, when you wake up wondering if you've forgotten anything).

Reason n°10 : Let yourself be surprised like the rest of the team

Our aim is to give everyone the chance to experience a real break from everyday life. You too deserve to be caught up in the magic and originality of the moment!
