One of Norfolk’s most popular and prestigious hotels and conference venues is spearheading a new type of business meeting which enables delegates to leave their laptops for a few hours.
The three star Barnham Broom Hotel in Norwich, believes that organisations can motivate their staff by adding a new dimension to a conference, meeting or corporate event, by encouraging them to take part in an activity which will inspire, renew and rejuvenate.
The hotel which has seven state-of-the-art conference and banqueting suites holding up to 200 people is now offering ‘break out’ conferences in which delegates are given a few hours to experience something different.
Barnham Broom Hotel’s Managing Director Noel Byrne explained: “It is well documented that by giving people a new experience or a different place in which they can think can help creativity, stimulate the senses and inspire new ideas.
“What we are suggesting is that built in to a conference, meeting or event is some time for delegates to take a break from their usual working routine and sample something different. It could be anything from having a relaxing swim, or vigorous work out in our health and leisure club, to a gentle walk, a trip to the races or visiting our two AA Rosette restaurant.â€
Deborah Lannon, the Hotels Conference and Events Coordinator says she has definitely noticed a difference in the type of events businesses are now organising for their staff. Deborah said: “We cater for all sorts of different organisations from very small local businesses to multi-nationals and more and more of them are realising the importance of down-time and we believe that this will become even more important in 2008.â€
