Common Challenges
Getting the most out of a retreat or facilitated group is never easy. Common retreat challenges include:
Unclear Desired Outcome
Retreat participants aren’t sure of the desired outcomes of the retreat and the important decisions to be made.
Lack of Psychological Safety
Participants aren’t given an equal opportunity to voice their opinion on important topics.
Low Engagement
The energy and motivation of retreat participants drop which leads to poor collaboration and results.
Poor Ideation
Retreat participants aren’t given the structure or space for ideation or divergent thinking, which results in stale conversations.
No Accountability
Ideas and decisions collected during the retreat are lost in the cracks due to inadequate follow-up.
Our Capabilities

Facilitations are set up for success when there is a clear understanding of desired outcomes, access to relevant data, awareness of group dynamics, and an outline of potential retreat scenarios.
Creating a Safe Space

Flexibility, time management, and conflict resolution ensure participants remain highly engaged and active during the retreat.

Real Results
Bâton Global brings together experts in management, strategy, and leadership development with thousands of hours of collective retreat facilitation experience. We understand that your meeting or retreat is unique!
Creativity Unleashed
Joint meetings between the executive team and board members of a healthcare organization were failing to deliver any long-term goals or vision because they were spending too much time in the weeds. Bâton crafted and delivered a retreat that was structured to keep all participants “out of the weeds” and “thinking big” about how to address the complex challenges facing players in that industry.
Conflict Diffused
In their own words, one technology board was “near implosion” before engaging Bâton for retreat facilitation. Having learned about the internal dynamics ahead of time, Bâton facilitators were able direct conflict to its most constructive use through question framing to get to consensus decisions that all parties found acceptable.
Direction Clarified
A professional association facing declining membership and increased competition among the services it provides engaged Orchestrate to drive an honest and impartial conversation among its board and key stakeholders to chart a path forward. The leadership team recognized the power of having an external facilitator with industry knowledge who could push and probe participants’ responses to create a more robust and thoughtful plan for the future.
