Give your team some Vitamin SEA – Group Travel
So, you are staying at a all-inclusive resort in the mexican caribbean and you decided to take a day off from all the running around on all day Riviera Maya excursions and while you are chilling by the pool, sipping cold margaritas you noticed some activities nearby, maybe a loud but fun group of people with matching t-shirts or silly hats…or both!
A Travel Reward Program can play a dramatic role on your team´s performance over the year.
Well, chances are you have encountered an incentives program reward group also knows as “group travel”. These enthusiastic and often loud group of people are just as happy as you are to be there, the only difference is that while you are with your significant other or your family ore ven a group of friends, they happen to have earned this trip with their colleagues.
While many companies use different ways to show appreciation to their employees by giving different type of rewards such as cash, special discounts on merchandise or certificates, different studies such as 2005 study conducted by the Center for Concept Development, a good 51% of respondents perceived that travel is remembered longer than other incentive rewards.
These incentives and group travel experiences often involve team building activities (like the one you just saw by the pool), theme night off site events, personalized amenities, audiovisual equipment for meetings and customized tours and group excursions among others, sometimes these reward trips even include spouses activities program so the wives won´t finish all the minibar (just kidding!)
