It's well known that team-building activities boost a team. Holding them by the sea adds a unique dimension. The coastal environment has a positive influence on well-being and social interaction. Studies in neuroscience and environmental psychology have demonstrated theimportance of contact with the sea, which considerably reduces stress while promoting creativity. In addition, physical activity helps stimulate the production of endorphins and dopamine. The marine setting thus tends to reduce cognitive fatigue, while creating an atmosphere conducive to relaxation, flexibility and innovation. The perfect cocktail for a successful seminar!
Energizing a team means taking a few key elements into account. At a business event, it's important not to focus solely on the seminar aspect, with meeting rooms, work and concentration all day long. You also need to think about theorganization of leisure time, to entertain and energize your employees.

This lack of drive may be due to a major change in the company. If a large part of the team lacks motivation, it's time to do something about it.
