Content licensing is an innovative strategy that involves giving another company the ability to use or distribute your content. It's not about selling your content, but rather renting it. This means you retain ownership, while another organization benefits from the expertise and value your content offers. It's a concept not widely known in the broader business community, yet it holds substantial potential for those who embrace it.

Here are my top three tips for planning your next team retreat.

I'm a big advocate of creating opportunities for my global team to come together; the ideas that we produce, the energy we create, and, frankly, the love, respect, and admiration we show for each other are just amazing!

So here are the steps that I think can help you to make the time that you've invested in spending together even more productive and frankly so much more fun than you ever imagined.

Set a primary objective.

These are working retreats and so as a leader, it's important to set the primary aims and objectives;

• What are we focusing on?
