Running a retreat for hundreds of staff and flying them to one location from around Europe is a significant investment for any company to make.
But retreats also bring a host of challenges and risks when the pandemic is still a present danger, regardless of vaccination rates.David Nothacker recently returned from a two-week trip to Sicily with hundreds of his colleagues for a retreat of workshops, team building and play.
The company split its staff into two groups to spend a week each at a resort on the Italian island to work together during the day, take part in workshops and socialize after hours. "One way of looking at this from a return-on-investment perspective is the retention. If we are able to extend the average tenure by a couple of months per employee, whatever investment of a few hundred euros pays itself off because finding a replacement, training, onboarding and so on is a huge cost."Workvivo, a start-up building workplace collaboration software that is backed by Zoom's Eric Yuan, has a team of 70 people scattered around Europe.
"There's huge energy and everyone comes together and the problem solving is brilliant and you go back to your remote environment or to the office and everyone is full of energy. You need something that is fueling that and energizing the team on an ongoing basis in a digital environment." As vaccination rates have gathered pace, she said the space has seen an uptick in bookings from corporate clients for employee events and training days.
