Do Your Meetings Inspire Dread or Productivity?

We all know the benefits of getting the team together face-to-face for an in-person meeting, but all too often that can incite feelings of exhaustion and dread. Especially if a meeting isn’t run well. Unproductive meetings can also be a drain on your time and monetary resources.

Although booking a meeting offsite may seem like an unnecessary expense, switching things up from your norm can be just the spark needed for your best and most productive meeting ever. A change of scenery can be just what the doctor ordered for new and inspired ideas, better focus, and more engagement from your team.

Reasons to consider a boardroom rental for your next important meeting

It sets the precedent that this meeting is different

Meeting in your office often becomes humdrum and tedious to staff. Planning to meet elsewhere can pique their attention and cause them to arrive better prepared and more alert. 

A different environment may inspire more creativity

A new environment stimulates the brain, in that everywhere you look, there’s something different that can inspire brand-new ideas. For your next brainstorming session, think about the possibilities of what may arise from a workplace curated for wellness and productivity!

You can expect uninterrupted attention

Meeting offsite will prevent in-person interruptions. You can let non-participants know how to reach you for emergencies.

You don’t need to worry about confidentiality

Office gossip can run rampant, especially if some employees see certain others participating in a meeting. It’s better to avoid suspicion, especially surrounding sensitive meeting content. Choosing an offsite location will help prevent the chit-chat.

When is it worth booking a boardroom?

The quick answer is when you want to get things done. Whether you need an hour or a day, renting boardroom space may be exactly what you needed to achieve your goals of the meeting.

Here are just a few reasons our Guests book meeting rooms at [inn]space:

• They’re strategizing or generating new ideas
• They’re interviewing a potential hire
• They are trying to attract a new client
• They’re presenting a workshop or class
• They want a neutral or private location

Meeting offsite doesn’t need to be a huge expense

Even meeting in-town can be as exciting (and less hassle of coordinating travel!) than going farther afield. Instead of an expensive, logistically awkward, multi-day retreat, consider a daytime session in one of the luxury meeting rooms. Added bonus? We would be pleased to arrange Catering for your team’s lunch – plus, everyone gets to leave on time and spend the evening at home.
