The Power of Multicultural & International Travel
Corporate Incentive Trips are a Decisive Factor for Employees and Retention of Talent.
You can’t run your business without employees and valuable talents. They are the touchstone to any successful business. The world’s best senior management teams have recognized the benefits of showing appreciation and investing in employee wellbeing. Saying and delivering a ‘thank you’ is the simplest and most effective way to boost morale, engagement, loyalty and productivity, and one of the best ways to do that is with a corporate incentive travel trip.
The benefits of incentive travel as a business propagation tool are relatively well recognised. It can:
- Motivate and inspire employees, giving them something to look forward to, making them feel rewarded in their roles.
- Encourage and support strong team dynamics, allowing cross-departmental communication and initiatives.
- Revive flagging staff, particularly when there has been a significant transformative event in the company, leaving them in need of TLC and revitalisation.
- Promote loyalty, dedication and recognition as a ‘good employer’, engendering feelings of value and appreciation, which are then communicated by the employee to the world at large.
- Boost employee health and wellbeing.
- Bond teams who are struggling to communicate, removing them from their office environment where roles may have become entrenched.
- Be used to identify and strengthen emerging leaders who can use a retreat to focus on their personal growth.
- Benefit a Senior Management Team, using time away from the office to focus on company growth and direction.
- Be of more long-term benefit to an employee than a traditional cash reward which may end up being used on household bills.
- Be tailored to the businesses’ budget, and, with the monetary value of the trip being opaque, can often cost less than cash bonuses, which are transparent and consequently, need to be pitched at a perceived acceptable level.

THE POWER OF MULTI-CULTURAL & INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL
Every people is a treasure for humanity. The most vital societies that history has known have always been those characterized by great ethnic and cultural diversity. One of the beautiful things about exploring Africa is the opportunity to witness and encounter diverse cultures and traditions. This is where you get to appreciate and understand the true essence of travel. It’s about making connections that foster and facilitating mutual understanding through intercultural dialogue. The fact is that traveling to other parts of the world is necessary as we become a more globalized world by helping us understand our differences and what we have in common. “Better knowledge and recognition of our respective differences lead ultimately to better mutual understanding, with particular regard to those objectives we hold in common,” as stated in the UNESCO World Report, Investing in Cultural Diversity and Intercultural Dialogue.
International travel and traveling to parts of the world that is completely different from what we are used to is also necessary for our cognitive flexibility and depth and integrativeness of thought – the ability to make deep connections between disparate forms, argued Adam Galinsky at Columbia Business School in his research on the concrete links between creativity and international travel. Professor Galinsky also argued that travel “increases awareness of underlying connections and associations” with other cultures. In a 2018 Harris Poll of 1,300 business travelers, 87 percent said that business trips helped them to be more empathetic to others, reports Quartz.
All of us have equivalents. Things we care about that aren’t mentioned anywhere. Part of growing up, and learning to travel well, means daring to take our own interests a bit more seriously. So, what is the traveler’s mindset? Receptivity, appreciation, and gratitude might be its chief characteristics. With travel, we can make our world the better place we found it.
With travel we can foster dialogue that can lead to a better understanding of our differences and differences that at a far may seem may seem major when in fact are minor – for we are more alike than different. I hope that during our collective confinements, we all come to appreciate travel and the power in making meaning and lasting connections. Let’s all strive to make travel meaningful activities that as humans is necessary to our survival as a human race. Lets us all attune to the needs of our inner self and travel to places that would fundamentally reorient your personality and embark on journeys that could assist us with our inner journeys.
