THIS IS WHERE DREAMS GO TO DIE: Selecting the Perfect Venue for Your Next Strategy Workshop Hotel conference rooms, with no natural light, fake smells, funky drip coffee, extravagant feature lighting, lush thick carpets, and heavy curtains, are where dreams go to die. They are NOT the ideal location for your next future-thinking workshop or meeting. Here are my top 3 tips for selecting a venue for your next workshop: 1) OFFSITE IS KEY: Studies show that changing the environment can significantly impact cognitive processes. It also signals importance. Consider the collective value of the time of everyone in the room and weigh that against the additional cost of taking it offsite. It's a small investment with massive impact. 2) NATURAL LIGHT AND VIEWS: Natural light is a must, a view of nature is better, and a view of a horizon is best. Exposure to natural environments and expansive horizons enhances creativity and inspires expansive thinking. 3) ROOM SIZE: The capacity should be at least 1.5 times the number of participants. People need space to move around, stand, and group for effective collaboration. There are sure to be lots of options in your area, so do some research. If you're in Perth, ask me for recommendations!
