Creativity is crucial for businesses looking to stay competitive and innovative. However, coming up with fresh and unique ideas can be a challenge, especially for teams that work together frequently. If you're looking to spark creativity among your team members, here are some unique approaches to try during your next group retreat at our scenic lakeside resort.
The Hunt Is On
Host a team-building scavenger hunt. Divide your team into small groups and challenge them to find various items or complete tasks throughout the hotel and surrounding area. This can help break down barriers, as well as encourage collaboration and creative problem-solving. It's also a great way to let your team explore Cooperstown!
Outdoor Inspiration
Take advantage of our resort's natural beauty. The Otesaga is situated on picturesque Otsego Lake, surrounded by rolling hills and scenic countryside. Take your team on a hike or bike ride to help them clear their minds and tap into their creative side.
Creativity on View
Hold a brainstorming session in a unique location. The Otesaga has several stunning event spaces, including a ballroom and our iconic veranda overlooking the lake. Consider holding your brainstorming session in one of these locations to inspire creativity and encourage outside-the-box thinking.
Pause & Reflect
Offer time for personal reflection. Encourage your team members to take some time for personal reflection during their stay at the Otesaga. Whether it's through journaling, meditation, or simply taking a walk by the lake, personal reflection can help spark new ideas.
Taking a new approach to your next retreat can foster a more innovative and collaborative work environment. Let the scenic views and historic charm of the Otesaga inspire your team! Contact our helpful staff to start planning your next meeting today.
