Case Study: Doist strengthens remote team collaboration with Retreat

Co-Working and Excursions Abroad Doist’s Spring Corporate Retreat in Seville, Spain

The customer, Doist, a fully remote company, sought to bring its globally distributed team together for a productive and engaging co-working retreat in Seville, Spain. The primary challenge was the significant logistical complexity of planning the event, including coordinating international travel during changing COVID-19 restrictions and handling all associated details like accommodations, workspaces, and activities without overburdening internal staff. They enlisted Retreat to provide their corporate retreat planning service to overcome this.

Retreat provided a comprehensive solution by handling all logistics, including sourcing the hotel, co-working locations, restaurants, and activities like a city walk. This end-to-end planning service saved the Head of Remote a tremendous amount of time and effort, allowing the internal team to focus on the experience itself. The result was a highly successful retreat that successfully combined work sessions with team-building excursions. Doist reported that the event was valuable in helping the team work together better, reinforcing their strong culture and impressive 95% employee retention rate.
