Retreat
For a retreat, the committee withdraws from regular activities to discuss a topic in depth. In contrast to ordinary committee meetings, the retreat takes place at a different location. The participants should have more time for dialogue and be under less pressure to take decisions. Retreats offer a great way to get to know each other better and to review the cooperation within the committee. If there are difficult decisions to be taken or conflicts to be resolved, it makes sense to call in an external moderator to support the chairperson. A retreat can also be organised with the participation of the administrative office.
