The word retreat means two things:
'The act of withdrawing from something difficult and dangerous'
'To move away from danger.'
During this retreat, we are, in some ways, asking your people to do both. 
We need you to retreat from the workplace where the stress is and where you are easily contacted to make decisions and solve problems. We do this so that you can enter an environment where we can gain your complete attention, where you feel 'off duty', and where you can relax surrounded by colleagues who want to make the most out of the time they have together. 
The moving away from danger is facilitated by you all proving that the environment is confirmed as psychologically safe so anyone can say anything or challenge anyone, (politely, professionally and respectfully). 
This event focuses on what requires developing, discusses it in a psychologically safe environment, and develops ideas to take back and experiment with. 
This retreat is not a one-size-fits-all event. It is specifically designed to address your organisation's unique needs, requirements, and desired outcomes. By tailoring the retreat to your specific context, we believe we can maximise its impact and ensure that it aligns with your strategic goals, values, and organisational culture.
It can be for:
Top executives.
A combination of your top executives and senior leadership.
A mix of your organisation's top decision-makers, HR, directors, managers, team leaders and colleagues.
Or any other mix that you prefer.
Numbers can range from about nine individuals to around 30 people. The venue for the event, along with transport, accommodation, and meals, are booked by the organisation taking part. We will guide you through the requirements for the location.
The retreat weekend can be Friday and Saturday, Saturday and Sunday or Sunday and Monday. Alternatively, this can be held during the working week. 
It follows various formats depending on the discussions leading up to the event. Below is an example of a past event (2023).
Request a discussion to help identify the key objectives and ingredients of your Corporate Retreat.

Day One:
Event briefing
Share our organisational and personal objectives. (Gathered before the event).

Course Overview:

Employee engagement is a necessary strategy for companies that want to succeed in the marketplace.  Employee engagement is not an HR initiative that managers are reminded to do once a year.  It is a key strategic driver of employee performance, accomplishment, and continuous improvement all year long. It is the outcome of how your organisation interacts with people to drive business results.
This Employee Engagement training is suitable for anyone that works in a management or leadership role.

Course Contents:

Help improve the engagement of your employees and increase business success
Engagement is a heightened emotional connection that an employee feels for his organisation, which influences them to put in greater effort. Higher engagement levels yield higher productivity and retention rates. This makes employee engagement a powerful factor in business success. Engaged employees are more productive, customer-focused, and profit-oriented and organisations are more likely to retain them.
An essential part of an organisation’s talent management strategy is its focus on employee engagement and retention. Organisations that maintain this focus create an environment where employees have the tools, resources, and professional opportunities to develop skills and fulfil their career goals.
Why is taking this course a good idea?

Well, just imagine if your you were better able to:

Understand the importance of employee engagement and the key part it plays in business success.
Apply tactics that motivate and engage employees, creating advocates for the business.
Achieve a working environment that encourages employees to excel at work activities.
Ensure talent retention by creating positive working relationships.
Develop a strategy for employee engagement success.
Prevent activities that cause disengagement and disgruntled workers.
Ultimately, these training course materials will help managers to engage and enthuse their team, creating a motivated workforce that wants to succeed.
Employee engagement is a key factor in creating the right conditions for all members of an organisation to give their best each day, committed to their organisation’s goals and values, motivated to contribute to organisational success, and with an enhanced sense of their own well-being.
These course materials aim to help highlight the requirements that managers and leaders have to help improve the engagement of employees, while giving them key tools and supporting content to ensure they are prepared  to deliver on employee engagement within the organisation.

The LAA operates a strict compliance regime when it comes to auditing family controlled work matters, and mistakes can often result in a Contract Notice, corrective action, and further follow-up activity within 6 months. 

This course will discuss the various aspects of family controlled work billing, with discussions on topics such as how to bill private law, public law, and help with mediation matters; how to evidence whether substantive negotiations and a settlement have taken place in private law matters; how do the LAA audit travel and other disbursement claims; what evidence must be present on files to avoid any issues on audit – including scope, gateway evidence, and forms/evidence of means (rules on evidence of means will be included in brief, however, a separate, more in-depth Civil Means Assessment Guidance Course is available); and the rules on claiming separate matters and escape fees. 

Key aspects of the Civil Contract and associated LAA Guidance (including the Codes Guidance) will be included, along with a discussion of common errors that are made. 

Target Audience
This online course is aimed at anyone involved in billing Family Controlled Work matters or managing an LAA Family Contract. 
Resources
Course notes will be provided to all delegates which may be useful for ongoing reference or cascade training.

Please note a recording of the course will not be made available.
