To reflect. To develop. You just keep going \u2013 until it all comes crashing down. Then the atmosphere is bad, people leave, and no one really knows why. <strong>And sometimes you need something special: an offsite. <\/strong> Get out of the office, get deep. How do we actually tick? Why are we doing all this? How do we want to approach it in the future? It can be sporty or relaxed \u2013 <strong>but it&#8217;s not about holidays. It&#8217;s about working on the team <\/strong> And that&#8217;s important. For everyone.

It&#8217;s not for nothing that people say, &#8220;Organising an offsite event is not for the faint-hearted.&#8221; At short notice, it can also be difficult to find suitable venues, as demand for team events has risen sharply recently.<\/p>\n<\/div><h3 class=\"js-accordion__header bb bc-contour lh-normal my0 c-text f6 w-100 p-relative py2 py3@xl pl6 pl8@xl h:c-primary #transition-basic\">Downtime from day-to-day business<\/h3><div class=\"js-accordion__panel bb bc-contour lh-normal py5 pa6@sm pa8@xl\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><p>When the entire team is away on an offsite for 1\u20132 days, those working hours are lost in day-to-day operations. Loss of productivity and tasks left undone must be taken into account. In stressful project phases, the timing of an offsite is therefore critical. Some employees may have important deadlines or customer enquiries and perceive the event as an additional burden.<\/p>\n<\/div><h3 class=\"js-accordion__header bb bc-contour lh-normal my0 c-text f6 w-100 p-relative py2 py3@xl pl6 pl8@xl h:c-primary #transition-basic\">Logistical hurdles for participants<\/h3><div class=\"js-accordion__panel bb bc-contour lh-normal py5 pa6@sm pa8@xl\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><p>Choose easily accessible locations, ensure accessibility and offer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bitou.de\/en\/team-event\/hybrid-team-event\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hybrid options<\/a> where appropriate.

As a rough guide, in Germany, expenses of up to \u20ac110 per employee and event are tax-free (this is the allowance up to which, for example, company celebrations can be deducted per person).<\/p>\n<p>There is no such thing as &#8220;typical costs&#8221; because every offsite is different.

Ideally, these should be derived directly from the offsite goals. Examples: If the goal was to strengthen team cohesion, you could conduct a feedback survey afterwards and ask whether employees feel they have formed new relationships or built trust.<\/p>\n<\/div><h3 class=\"js-accordion__header bb bc-contour lh-normal my0 c-text f6 w-100 p-relative py2 py3@xl pl6 pl8@xl h:c-primary #transition-basic\">How do I deal with resistance within the team?<\/h3><div class=\"js-accordion__panel bb bc-contour lh-normal py5 pa6@sm pa8@xl\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><p>Open dialogue and involvement are the best ways to overcome resistance. Many preconceptions can be dispelled once the benefits and process are understood. Show the team that the offsite is designed to improve their daily work, not to boss them around. Then even critics will usually become curious \u2013 and be pleasantly surprised afterwards.<\/p>\n<\/div><h3 class=\"js-accordion__header bb bc-contour lh-normal my0 c-text f6 w-100 p-relative py2 py3@xl pl6 pl8@xl h:c-primary #transition-basic\">How often and how long should an offsite event be?<\/h3><div class=\"js-accordion__panel bb bc-contour lh-normal py5 pa6@sm pa8@xl\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><p>Offsites can last from one day (an 8-hour intensive workshop plus perhaps an evening programme) to several days. Two days is common, often with an overnight stay, as this allows for sufficient working time and team bonding. Smaller offsites (especially local ones without travel) can also be held on a full day \u2013 in this case, the goals must be clearly defined.<\/p>\n<p>The frequency of offsites depends on your company and team.
