We were honored to be hosted by the fantastic staff at The Domain Hotel Bahrain for our first corporate offsite this year.
We started our day with a yoga session led by one of our account managers to rejuvenate ourselves and get a good long stretch! Second, we began discussing the projects we worked on during the year of 2013. 
We then moved to the boardroom on the 12th floor where we enjoyed a light breakfast and some coffee before getting hard to work on our company strategy for 2014.
We had 3 presentations, several brainstorming sessions, as well as a round table discussion to really get the most out of the entire team. We thoroughly enjoyed the dynamic discussion and had a chance to reflect on the past year which included discussing our shortcomings and suggesting improvements as well as celebrating our triumphs and successes.
Afterwards we headed to Le Sauvage for a decadent 3 course meal which we enjoyed in the presence of some stunning views.
And finally, our creative director held an impromptu awards ceremony where each of our team members was presented with a unique and quirky award to acknowledge their hard work and commitment to Obai & Hill in 2013.
We look forward to planning our next offsite and a wonderful year ahead!
