Company offsite 2026: pick dates, city, and a purpose

Context

We want an offsite that feels worth the time and travel. When offsites fail, it’s usually because they become a packed agenda without real decisions, or because logistics overwhelm the experience. When they work, people come back with a shared picture of the year, sharper cross-team relationships, and a short list of commitments that actually stick.

This proposal separates three things that are often mixed together: timing, place, and purpose. The dates matter because they affect attendance and energy. The city matters because it shapes travel time and costs. The purpose matters because it determines whether the agenda should be discussion-heavy, workshop-heavy, or simply relationship-heavy.

What is being decided

• The offsite window in 2026
• The host city for the gathering
• The main purpose statement that should guide the agenda design

What you can do

Vote on the window and city options, then choose the purpose that best matches what the company needs right now. Comments are welcome for practical constraints, especially travel time, visa concerns, or accessibility needs.
