JUSTIFICATION FOR RECOMMENDING OFFSITE TRAINING
If your training will involve multiple teams, as in the case of the current proposal, the Bunge team will have the opportunity to take advantage of breakout spaces that allow different teams to interact with each other during breaks from the training session. The possibility of team members rushing back to their desks during breaks will be eliminated.
Therefore, the offsite concept remains an opportunity to encourage inter-team networking.
REMOVE DISTRACTIONS
When training events are held at the office, interruption (especially the staff) is inevitable. Colleagues walking in with “quick” questions and which in most cases could wait till after the training. While there will be some exceptions to this, training sessions will benefit from being away from the office as it will minimize these disruptions. Offsite training is captivating and makes sure messages are effectively conveyed. That is, being at a different location from the usual working environment can eliminate distractions and provide delegates with the opportunity to fully grasp the new information.
