Leaders invest in off-sites because they know that some goals are only possible when you bring the collective intelligence and passion of the organization into one room together, and unleash it
Benefits

Hear What Our Clients Say:
“We called Eric in to design and facilitate an 80-person offsite. He worked with us on every stage of meeting planning and execution. From giving pointers on how to make activities more engaging and how to increase learning through live simulations to setting the right tone and having the right tempo in our schedule, Eric nailed it.
On the feedback forms from the offsite, Eric’s contributions and leadership were mentioned directly by virtually everyone. His depth of experience in running over 250 offsites in the past five years really showed, in how he coached us as managers to set the events up for success, how he conducted sessions, and how he added concrete stories from his experience with other leadership teams.
I would encourage everyone, from companies big and small, to consider Eric as a resource in planning off-sites and leadership team meetings. These events aren’t cheap, and we wouldn’t have gotten nearly the same return in terms of culture setting and learning without Eric involved.”
You have set your company vision. You have your top people in the room. What should you do with them?
