Organising a seminar is often long and tedious because so many factors have to be taken into account. The successful organisation of a seminar is an important business issue for a company. That's why it's important to ensure that it runs smoothly and to plan the programme down to the last detail.
The importance of organising a seminar properly
Firstly, it's important to choose a venue that reflects your company's culture, values and the messages you want to convey during the seminar.
You also need to ensure that the logistics are right in terms of accessibility. Whether by car, train or plane, the seminar venue must be easily accessible. This is a practical matter that is important to bear in mind, as it marks the start of the seminar and can be an unnecessary source of wasted time and frustration for participants waiting for latecomers. It is difficult to welcome your professional partners by starting on a negative note.
It is essential that all seminar participants are welcomed in the best possible conditions, to avoid unnecessary hassle and to be able to concentrate on the objective of the seminar. That's why it's advisable to choose establishments with experience of seminars.
The teams are therefore used to this type of event and are capable of providing a service that meets your requirements. You benefit from tailor-made services. In terms of catering, for example, you can organise all types of meal: cocktails, buffets, table service, depending on the time available, your budget, the number of guests, etc.
Another advantage of this type of establishment is the possibility of reserving rooms and work equipment adapted to the number of participants.
Each participant has their own sleeping area and can take advantage of the facilities available at any time (swimming pool, spa, leisure activities).
Combining work sessions, catering and accommodation in the same place is a way of keeping travel time to a minimum, which generally increases with the number of participants.
Organise a seminar in the heart of the vineyards
Organising a seminar right in the middle of a wine estate guarantees that your company will pass on some incredible values.
The winery is a place for sharing and know-how, where authenticity and a taste for the perfect gesture are cultivated. Combining quality, respect for tradition, teamwork and the quest for innovation are all values that the winery and your company share.
Your seminar may also want to combine elements of nature. You can take advantage of the beauty of the countryside for walks and wine-related activities, such as cellar visits, vineyard tours, discussions with the estate's oenologist, wine tasting and discovery of the estate's wines.
The origins of a Grand Cru lie in a concern for perfection and uncertainty. Its conception requires proximity to and respect for nature and its vagaries, humility in the face of uncertainty, and the patience to wait for the passage of time.
In this way, the winery is an ideal place to create a quality working relationship, based on a stable foundation.
