When it comes to the future of business, nature-centered experiences are an essential tool for unlocking strategies for success.

LIVINGSTON, MT, UNITED STATES, October 8, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- In today’s fast-paced, high-stress work environment, organizations are turning to outdoor retreats as a powerful solution to rejuvenate teams, foster collaborations, and drive growth. Company retreat planner, Artisan Venture Tours shares why prioritizing quality time with the team outside and engaging in new adventures can bring significant business success.

Just 10 minutes of exposure to the great outdoors can do the trick, bringing substantial benefits to the entire team. By focusing on nature-infused retreats, AVT’s innovative approach to team building sets the example for enhancing productivity, creativity, and well-being. Learn about AVT's key insights into the advantages of planning outdoor retreats and why it's becoming a trend.

Reasons to opt outside for a team adventure:

1. Boost Creativity and Problem-Solving
Studies reveal that immersing oneself in nature can increase creative thinking by up to 50%. Escaping the confines of routine thinking through a change of scenery enables employees to generate fresh ideas and innovative solutions. Research suggests that the benefits of nature can be found in many forms, including parks, forests, and places with river and ocean views. Regular access to green spaces can inspire creativity, boost mood, lower depression, and increase self-esteem.

2. Improve Team Cohesion
Outdoor group activities are more than just fun - they foster trust, communication, and cooperation. Teams that engage in challenging yet rewarding activities are more likely to function effectively and support each other back at the office. Human interaction is fundamental for individuals to thrive, including employees who want to feel connected to their company and be part of a positive work atmosphere.

3. Reduce Stress and Burnout
Nature can have many restorative benefits for employees' physical and psychological health. Being surrounded by nature is the antidote for stress, as it can significantly reduce stress hormone levels, lower blood pressure, and improve cognitive performance for more mental clarity. Consistently scheduled retreats can help combat burnout and aid in employee retention because a retreat allows for quality time for companies to learn and understand what their team members need. Around 91% of employees say they're more inclined to work for a company with an uplifting environment and recognize employees for their hard work. Retention rates can triple just by a company that values community and shows appreciation.

4. Physical Health Benefits
Research shows that engaging in outdoor activities doesn't just boost physical fitness, it can enhance your immune system function and sleep quality. These benefits extend to the workplace, where they can lead to reduced absenteeism and lower healthcare costs for employers. Embracing outdoor activities can be a win-win for both employees and businesses alike.

Planning for a positive experience:

It’s important to have a positive experience throughout the planning process, and a planner focused on tailoring the event to align with the company values, goals, and culture. Making the vision come to life is what AVT does best.

"Every retreat we design is unique. We don’t just plan activities, we create experiences that resonate with teams long after they leave,” said one of AVT's two expert event planners, Heather Klatt. “It’s rewarding to see the connections made in the wild translate back to the office in powerful ways."

Specializing in outdoor adventures, wellness, creative programs, and team building, AVT ensures tangible outcomes for every experience.

Passionate about delivering exceptional and impactful experiences, AVT expert event planner, Carissa Walsh shares her thoughts based on feedback from past retreats.

"We consistently hear from our clients about the transformative impact of these retreats,” said Walsh. “Clients have shared with us that their team’s internal communication skills improved significantly after participating, and the creative problem-solving that flourished during our outdoor sessions translated directly into their next major project’s success.”
