Weekends and holidays, once deemed inappropriate for business meetings, are now increasingly considered suitable in the context of remote work. Industry leaders like Michael Dominguez and Debbie Garcia highlight how this blending of professional and personal life allows for family-inclusive events. Remote work leads many professionals to work on weekends, transforming their approach to scheduling. Garcia notes that her own experiences show families sharing business trips together, enhancing the value of both personal and professional engagements. This evolving landscape encourages events even on holidays, reflecting a significant cultural shift in workplace dynamics.
"We live in a blended society where what was taboo is no longer taboo. The days of you can't have meetings over the weekend are over," said Michael Dominguez.
"Remote work has blurred the lines between work and home life. This makes weekends just as viable for business events as weekdays," said Debbie Garcia.
"I've brought my family to conferences, turning business trips into shared experiences," said Garcia.
"So many people are working from home and getting away to attend a weekend event is getting away from the office," said Dominguez.
