Offsite Planner

🔵 Stable🕐 updated 2026-07-19 🔷 SkillSpec L3 pm-cowork

Plan a team offsite that earns its cost — the purpose split (connection vs. decisions vs. planning, weighted on purpose), the agenda that alternates work and air, the logistics runbook, and the follow-through that makes Monday different from before. Use when asked plan our team offsite, design two days for the team, make this offsite not a waste, or what do we actually do at the offsite. Produces the purpose weighting, the day designs, the logistics checklist, and the commitments-capture that survives re-entry.

What to give it

The team's current truth — new team (connection-heavy)? Post-reorg (alignment)? Strategy fog (decisions)? The weighting follows the actual need, not the standard template
The constraints — budget band, days, travel realities, and who's remote (a hybrid offsite that treats dial-ins as an afterthought damages exactly the connection it exists to build)
The decisions in scope — if decisions are claimed, which ones, with their pre-reads ([decision-meeting-format](../decision-meeting-format/SKILL.md) applies — offsites don't exempt decisions from needing options)
Last offsite's autopsy — what worked, what evaporated; the follow-through design patches the specific evaporation

✅ The bar it holds itself to

Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.

The purpose weighting is explicit and was communicated
Every work block ends in an artifact; air is scheduled, not residual
In-scope decisions have pre-reads shipped before travel
Logistics have a single named owner and the hybrid setup was tested
The T+2 check-in exists on calendars before the offsite starts

⚠️ What it refuses to do

Do not schedule solid — the corridors are half the ROI; protect them on purpose
Do not improvise decisions because everyone's present — presence isn't preparation
Do not treat remote attendees as speakerphones — hybrid inclusion is designed or it's exclusion with a call link
Do not let commitments live in the room's memory — owner, date, note, or it was a retreat
Do not skip the weighting conversation — mismatched expectations turn good offsites into "wastes of time" in the retelling
