The Brief

We were asked to create an engaging team experience for 80 guests across the finance, systems, legal & CSR teams of a UK-based automotive company. The purpose of the day was to provide a strategic update to the teams on the future of the function, alongside combining team activities, corporate social responsibility elements, and a social evening to reward teams for their hard work in the year prior and motivate them around the goals communicated for the year ahead. 

The Solution

Guests were treated to a day and night of varied activities by the River Thames, including strategic meeting updates, a charity team-building activity to build wheelchairs for a wheelchair basketball team, a private dinner aboard a traditional New Orleans steamer paddleboat in Henley, live musical entertainment and an overnight stay at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Marlow. We delivered the full programme, including conferencing and AV, theming, venue and supplier management, and logistics and travel management between venues for all guests.

The Impact

On average there is a 26% increase in productivity after a well-run offsite retreat. This event has run as a partnership for 10 years due to its success in achieving the client’s outcomes on connection, communication of business priorities, and fun as a team. Off the back of the success of the event, planning commenced for the following summer where the client’s team were treated to a buyout of Monopoly Lifesize in London and an exclusive private dinner at Milk Beach in Soho.
