“At the end of the event, I had a large number of attendees say this was “the best leadership offsite meeting they’ve ever had”.   Note that many of the attendees come from companies like Apple, Cisco, IBM, Google, etc. so this is a hard crowd to please.”

“Our training was very team focused which led to a more creative approach to problem solving and “break-through thinking”. People who did not think they had the capacity to innovate left with ideas, solutions and renewed energy for the project.”
