Plan your offsite

Set Objectives & Agenda

What do we want to achieve with our offsite?

Take time before the offsite to understand what you want to achieve with the offsite. While it’s ultimately up to the facilitator to decide on the objectives and agenda, it’s often helpful to involve your team during this phase of planning.
