Running Offsites

Pulls together frameworks from five product leaders on how to actually run team offsites that don't suck. The guidance is practical: use quarterly "bursts" for remote teams, go laptops-down with whiteboards for real strategic work, start with social time before diving into strategy sessions. The best bit is the advice on readiness,it'll push you to address underlying team conflicts before wasting everyone's time on soft skills workshops. Covers the full cycle from clarifying what you actually want out of the offsite to avoiding packed agendas that leave no room for the conversations that matter. Useful if you're planning quarterly planning sessions or trying to get a remote team to gel in person.
