THE BLEISURE AS A TREND: WHY’ TODAY AND WHAT OPPORTUNITIES’ OFFER

  • October 26, 2022

We report an article by Alessandra Boiardi taken from Meetings and Congresses. Because the work, relations, productivity, they always pass through emotion too, be it an event, of stay, of conviviality.


In recent times we hear more and more often about bleisure, that is, the possibility of combining a business trip with a few days of vacation, for example by extending the business stay over the weekend. (to us of Villa Bornello also like to understand it as a situation of conviviality and business motivation away from the working walls and surrounded by greenery, even after work, even on Friday evenings, as a debilitating situation e engaging n.d.r. )

It's nothing new, but the renewed attention to work-life balance that the pandemic has bequeathed us, seems to have revived it. And it is not only from this point of view that this trend is once again being talked about. Even the binomialbleisure e MICE makes its way, but the participants of an event today are really inclined to mix the work aspect with the personal one?

The bleisure is really atrend in MICE? And how are thedestinations?

That the corporate world has changed and with it the priorities of workers is no longer a novelty. Companies are increasingly committed to improving the corporate climate and focusing onwell-being as a form of incentive and employee retention, that is, to reward employees and keep them in the company.

From the point of view of work organization, this is reflected, for example, in the decision of many companies that have experienced smart working and remote work for the first time during the years of the pandemic, to continue to offer this form of work to meet the needs of many people.

And we are also starting to talk about other forms of work "away from the desk", such as for example theworkation. How can you understand, is a term that combines the word work (Work) e vacation (vacation), but it is fair to point out that it is not – as one might think – a solution that provides, simply, to be able to work “lying on the beach”, but assumes, vice versa, a whole range of regulations.

And if these new approaches could revolutionize the world of work in a short time, what is certain is that they are already among the wishes of business travellers.

According to the’indagine di Travel for business sul workation, in collaboration with Alma Travel, who questioned his community made up mostly of travel and mobility managers, il 70% of respondents consider workation as oneopportunity to be more relaxed, even if only the 26% he claims to have practiced it in some form. The 62% he is also convinced that a period of workation would improve both life and work.

As for the bleisure, an Expedia study highlights that already in the pre pandemic for the 48% was theattractiveness of the destination in terms of liveliness to convince travelers to extend their business trip, for the 43% the fact of being in a place not to be missed from a tourist point of view,  il 38% rated the ease of moving to the destination itself and the 37% how close the weekend was.

DAY TEAM. THE HOURS VILLA. FOR BUSINESS IN THE GREEN

  • May 19, 2021
DAY TEAM. LA VILLA AD ORE. PER IL BUSINESS NEL VERDE

Day Dayteam for the executive team of a Web Marketing company. Work table, projector and blackboard but also walks in the park, lunch with appetizers, the various breaks and finally the evening aperitif with Angus, caponatina and cod. We caught the founder in call astride a piece more in the middle of nowhere. And he did well. This is the spirit of Villa Bornello when dedicated to corporate events.

The DayTeam is a recently launched format. You find it who. We are on offer for a few weeks to celebrate the recent 'reopening’ that we hope they will transform the lockdown only into a memory and that they have given the groups the opportunity to re-meet even with all the necessary precautions.

A sort of 'villa by the hour'. (But we only stole the title from Herbert Pagani 🙂 ).

SMART (CO)WORKING: ADVANTAGES AND SOME DISADVANTAGES

  • May 29, 2020

(GREEN) SMART COWORKING. TIRED OF STAYING HOME? FAST BRIEFING IN THE FOREST?

  • May 21, 2020
(GREEN) SMART COWORKING. STANCO DI STARE A CASA? VELOCE BRIEFING NEL BOSCO?

There are those who have been left out’ . Not fired, be clear, but invited by the company to work from home. They call Smart Working and hundreds of employees and freelancers are trying.

Sounds good but can be alienating. The kitchen table equipped for a few hours a day and in any case until lunch when you have to disembark, the shuttle with the sofa, the little Jacopo or Letizia who tug your sleeve to play. It's not easy.

Above all you are alone.

Yes of course you have a thousand conference calls and webinars during the day but you want to see colleagues from the neck down too, gossip in front of the coffee machine, lunch break at self service? Dear old brain storming in the meeting room cradled by a live Keynote? You miss all this? Covid has exterminated not only handshakes and hugs but also the palpable pleasure of working in a group in a comfortable environment, comodo, protective and pleasant.

There he is Smart Coworking. To which we will also add the adjective green. Not in the sense of the golf course (even if a couple of holes once here were once there :-). The Green Smart Coworking here with us is the possibility, once or twice a week (or per month) to leave the terrace at home, the sofa or the officer quickly set up in the attic for a business meeting in the villa. The variations are endless. There are also those who take advantage of our catering for the home lunch box. You have the net up to the lawn and various corners in which to set yourself apart, help yourself. Not a normal coworking, where you would find spaces necessarily similar to offices and often populated by strangers, but a warm and welcoming workplace where you can have a connection, comfort, open spaces e offices reserved. For the entire day, to take stock, to finish the famous project.

And if you need to take a nap, the famous power nap, you are spoiled for choice: the amaca or the lounge chair.

In short, do what you once did (nap aside:-). Have the best ideas by sipping a pond front tea, work hard but also joke, chat about light things.

In a word, collaborate. And in any case always observing the various measures dictated by the recent epidemic.

And for those who want a hypothesis of a dedicated ladder, here it is an example.
