How long do you want your teambuilding event to be?

A teambuilding event is a professional event designed to strengthen the bonds in your team, teach them to work together better and, by so doing, smash the goals set by the senior directors. To find the type of room rental solution you need, though, it’s best to work out the ideal duration for this type of exercise… Read on to find out what we recommend.

Which factors determine how long a teambuilding exercise should last?

There is no precise, set duration for a teambuilding exercise, because the way this professional event is organised is going to depend on several factors:

• Which venue are you going to choose for the room rental? If it is less than 30 minutes away from your company’s office, you could hold a teambuilding exercise that lasts just a single day. If it is further away, on the other hand, it will need to take place over several days, so that you take the travel time into account, along with the tiredness that comes with covering this distance.
• What are the objectives of this professional event? The agenda for the event has a direct impact on its duration: if it is a matter of teaching your team to get to know each other better, the teambuilding exercise can take place in a day, whereas if you are using it to present a new marketing strategy or the company’s financial results, you’ll need to allow more time.

Why does the duration of the event influence the room rental decision?

The duration of a teambuilding event has a direct impact on the room rental, because if it lasts longer than a day, you’re going to have to lay on some accommodation for all the attendees. As such, there are only two options open to you:

• Find a room rental solution that comes with accommodation

This option enables you to bring all the attendees together at the same site for the entire duration of this professional event. Whilst it will generally be more expensive, it does save you the cost of providing transportation on each day of the teambuilding event.

• Find a room rental solution in a big city

This option is intended more specifically for companies based in big cities. There are some urban room rental solutions that are ideally suited to teambuilding activities – regardless of their duration. These venues enable the attendees to go home each evening, if the professional event lasts longer than a day…
