Meetings are a fact of life for most businesses, whether large corporations, small businesses, or non-profit organizations. Board meetings allow members to get valuable updates on a company’s progress and goals, team meetings give people a chance to collaborate on projects, staff meetings provide time to update everyone on important policies and human resource related news, and strategic planning meetings help shape the future direction of the company.
All of the things listed above are vital to a company’s success. But how exciting are they? Many times people look to meetings with dread or treat them like just another part of the day to get through. Something that takes away from individual work time. However, the time spent in these different types of meetings is valuable, for a variety of reasons. They allow for collaboration, brainstorming, knowledge sharing, and fine-tuning policies and best practices.
The question is, how do you get your employees to understand the value of the meetings and get excited about going? One way is to hold the meeting off-site. Private event facilities, like Legacy Stables and Events, are often associated with off-site team-building days or company-wide picnics. But our estate can be used for so much more. At Legacy Stables and Events, we provide flexible meeting space to accommodate small, intimate groups as well as large functions. From large presentations to break-out sessions, we have the ability to create a space that works for whatever type of meeting your organization needs to have.
5 Benefits of Off-Site Meetings
Before you book your office’s conference room for another meeting, consider Legacy Stables and Events as an alternative site. Here are a few benefits of hosting a meeting at our private facility:
- The change of scenery can help motivate employees. Being out of the office setting feels less like the typical daily routine, and helps get people’s brains working in new and different ways. It’s great for brainstorming and team building.
- Legacy Stables and Events has the ability to set up meetings at a variety of different spaces inside, but we have outdoor options as well. Take advantage of the beautiful weather here in the Piedmont Triad and have your next team meeting on our patio.
- When you reserve meeting space at Legacy Stables and Events, you also take advantage of our team’s planning and support. This takes some of the workload off you and helps streamline the event.
- Whether your meeting will be just a few hours or a full-day event, food is an integral part of any gathering. Our catering staff can provide delicious options for your meeting, whether it’s a mid-morning snack with muffins and fruit, a full meal, or a cocktail hour.
- Hosting a meeting off-site is a great option for companies where many people still work from home. This gives all of your staff a place to gather and connect, if your office space isn’t large enough to accommodate everyone at one time.
