Why the Space Makes the Meeting

If you’re hosting a meeting or get together, you’ve got plenty of decisions to make. Choosing the seating arrangement, the orderves, and the agenda are all important. One of the most crucial, tone-setting choices that you will make is where the meeting happens. Venue is everything. When you choose a location for your meeting or event, you’re telling your guests and coworkers how they should feel. Finding a collaborative space will encourage others to open up and contribute — a necessary quality for any good brainstorming session.

Choose an Event Space that Matches the Nature of Your Meeting

If you’re hosting a baby shower, you probably want the event to feel comfortable and familial. That’s why homes are often a go-to choice for these events. If you’ve got a planning session where you’re trying to generate ideas or content for the future, you want a space that will match that tone. An open space with plenty of natural light is good for a creative headspace. When your environment feels open and accessible, your will behave accordingly. If you have used the same meeting space again and again, try changing it up for some fresh results.

The Wrong Workspace Can Shut Down Workflow and Creativity

Your environment is the first thing the attendees of your meeting will notice. Even if you have an organized agenda and plenty of hot coffee on hand, the wrong environment can derail your sense of workflow and creativity. Brainstorming in a room without windows is a slog. You don’t want to self sabotage! When you make the right choice about the environment of your meeting, the rest of your planning efforts will fall into place.
