Now, more than ever, meeting attendees are looking to make the most of their business travel. Quick trips still exist, but according to business guide author Richard Moran, including downtime in the meeting agenda will increase meeting goers’ happiness and satisfaction. True downtime, coupled with a realistic schedule, is restorative and gives attendees time to absorb the material that’s been presented.
Providing opportunities to get to know the local area with fellow attendees during downtime is a wonderful way to engage and energize meeting-goers. Lively cities are the perfect backdrop for interesting, horizon-expanding activities.
