Monkbar Hotel Puts Motivation Into Meetings

A York hotel is adding a new dimension to meetings which will leave delegates feeling engaged, stimulated and ready for anything the day throws at them.
For The Best Western Monkbar Hotel has launched “Motivational Meetings” - where its own Motivators – Assistant Managers and identical twins, Tom and Ben Richardson – will lead the attendees through a fun work-out designed to get the adrenaline pumping.
Monkbar Hotel director June Nelsey said: “Making time for meetings is even more important in the present market place, and for organisers to get the best out of their teams they need to ensure that they turn up motivated.
“The boys take delegates through a ten minute work-out – before the meeting starts, and after lunch when the energy levels are known to drop – to inspire enthusiasm and drive.
June added: “The Japanese are very forward thinking about physical exercise before mental exercise, and every company starts the day with a get fit routine.
“I thought our meetings needed a kick-start so that from the moment the meeting begins, the delegates are alive and ready for action. It’s proving very popular, but maybe that’s because they all want to see our boys in action.”
