Why choose an original corporate seminar?
An original seminar is much more than a standard team meeting. It creates the right conditions to:
- Strengthen team cohesion : Through team-building activities, you encourage interaction, cooperation and genuine connection between participants.
- Leave a lasting impression : A seminar that stands out stays in people’s minds, reinforcing a strong and lasting sense of belonging.
- Achieve your objectives : Training session, incentive seminar or project kick-off—an original format captures attention and boosts engagement across all levels.
- Balance thinking and relaxation : Breaks, relaxation and breathing spaces are essential to energise your talents and improve productivity.

Key steps to a successful original seminar
1. Define your objectives and theme
Start by clarifying your goals:
- Strengthen team cohesion?
- Launch a new project?
- Reward your talents?
Then choose a theme that reflects these ambitions.
2. Choose the right setting
The venue sets the tone. A castle, a historic house or a nature retreat encourages reflection, creativity and wellbeing.
3. Alternate work and relaxation
A successful seminar balances focused work sessions with breaks and playful activities. Mix meetings, workshops, free time and unexpected moments to maintain energy and engagement.
Organising a corporate seminar is far more than a formality. It’s an opportunity to unite your teams, reach your goals and strengthen your company culture. At Chateauform, we put our expertise at the service of your ambitions, with unique venues and fully tailor-made programmes.
