Description
Offsite retreats should be more than a break from the office, they should be a catalyst for breakthrough thinking and team alignment. Planning the Offsite Retreat is your comprehensive guide to creating retreats that leave a lasting impact. Whether you’re planning for your leadership team, board of directors, or a cross-functional group, this book helps you design experiences that are both energizing and effective.
Scott De Long, Ph.D., shares the planning framework he’s used to facilitate dozens of successful offsites. You’ll learn how to build an agenda that strikes the right balance between reflection, collaboration, strategy, and team-building, without wasting time on fluff or losing sight of your goals.
Inside, you’ll learn:
- How to define retreat objectives and align your design around them
- Tips for choosing the right location, environment, and facilitator
- The flow of a well-paced agenda (and what to leave out)
- How to create space for vulnerability, dialogue, and trust
- Ways to build in accountability so the retreat doesn’t end with the event
- What to do before, during, and after to ensure momentum carries forward
You’ll also get templates for agendas, feedback forms, and follow-up frameworks.
If you want to create a memorable, meaningful, and high-impact retreat that moves your team forward, not just out of the office, Planning the Offsite Retreat is your guide.
