Are your staff members crying the blues as of late? Are they showing signs of not feeling appreciated? Or, are they just caught up in the concern that most of us have about the economy being what it is? Maybe raises and bonuses for the whole company are not in your budget this year, but consider an alternative: an incentive cruise. The cost per person drops the more people you include and it is a great way to inject new life and motivation into your team.
Most cruise ships offer all-inclusive packages that cover food, lodging, entertainment and most drinks. Dinner, activities, dancing and nightly entertainment on a four- or five-day cruise can serve both as an incentive and as a teambuilding experience. And, with the record breaking cold temperatures all over the U.S. right now, doesn’t a tropical destination like Puerto Rico sound perfect?
Once docked in the port of San Juan, there are an abundance of sights and activities to take in. Old San Juan, with its 16th century forts, shopping in Condado and Isla Verde, Loquillo’s breathtaking beach, the rainforest and National Forest of El Yunque are just a few of the places to consider for your staff. It will be amazing how rejuvenated and motivated they will feel when upon your return.
