Echelon Events Has Fun in the Dominican Republic

The Echelon Events team recently returned from a rest and relaxation retreat in Punta Cana. The firm's Director of Operations detailed the benefits and dynamics of business travel.

“August has been a great month for Echelon Events,” said Anum, the company’s Director of Operations. “My colleagues, Sam and Zach, accompanied me on the retreat to the Dominican Republic. In addition to the networking opportunities we enjoyed, we had ample time for fun and revitalization.”

Anum explained that high-level leaders from all over the country also attended the gathering. As a result, she and her colleagues nurtured existing relationships and initiated new ones. Their connections offer value far into the future, as they exchange advice, ideas, and other resources.

“The retreat also included an awards ceremony that highlighted the top performers in the industry,” stated Anum. “It was quite inspiring to see how much ambitious people can achieve when they work hard and embrace their passion and potential. We left Punta Cana with renewed energy and focus, which has only multiplied since returning to Echelon Events.”

How Echelon Events Benefits by Offering Team Travel Opportunities

According to Anum, modern professionals want more from their work than decent pay. They want meaning, growth, and other value-aligned opportunities. Travel is among the perks that attract promising individuals to the business world, and it certainly pays off for Echelon Events.

“I witness a number of positive outcomes from team travel,” Anum continued. “Enhanced morale is probably the most noticeable of them. After all, going on trips usually comes with some type of learning, whether it is due to conference attendance or simply the exploration of a new destination. On top of that, visiting restaurants and museums during downtime makes the trips feel like mini-vacations. They’re stimulating, and people appreciate the experiences. Their gratitude shows in their performances back at work.”

There are several ways Anum and her fellow leaders incorporate travel into the company’s culture. For instance, they build it into every job description. This way, all team members expect it and the management is accountable for providing it. Trips are most often available to national conferences, regional trainings, and retreats like the Punta Cana excursion.

“Travel is also an excellent reward,” Anum concluded. “In many cases, we offer it as an incentive. The individuals who hit certain goals or otherwise demonstrate high performance earn invitations to big adventures. We’re already looking forward to the next one!”
