Description
The word retreat means two things:
'The act of withdrawing from something difficult and dangerous'
'To move away from danger.'
During this retreat, we are, in some ways, asking your people to do both.
We need you to retreat from the workplace where the stress is and where you are easily contacted to make decisions and solve problems. We do this so that you can enter an environment where we can gain your complete attention, where you feel 'off duty', and where you can relax surrounded by colleagues who want to make the most out of the time they have together.
The moving away from danger is facilitated by you all proving that the environment is confirmed as psychologically safe so anyone can say anything or challenge anyone, (politely, professionally and respectfully).
This event focuses on what requires developing, discusses it in a psychologically safe environment, and develops ideas to take back and experiment with.
This retreat is not a one-size-fits-all event. It is specifically designed to address your organisation's unique needs, requirements, and desired outcomes. By tailoring the retreat to your specific context, we believe we can maximise its impact and ensure that it aligns with your strategic goals, values, and organisational culture.
It can be for:
Top executives.
A combination of your top executives and senior leadership.
A mix of your organisation's top decision-makers, HR, directors, managers, team leaders and colleagues.
Or any other mix that you prefer.
Numbers can range from about nine individuals to around 30 people. The venue for the event, along with transport, accommodation, and meals, are booked by the organisation taking part. We will guide you through the requirements for the location.
The retreat weekend can be Friday and Saturday, Saturday and Sunday or Sunday and Monday. Alternatively, this can be held during the working week.
It follows various formats depending on the discussions leading up to the event. Below is an example of a past event (2023).
Request a discussion to help identify the key objectives and ingredients of your Corporate Retreat.

Retreat delivery and venue
We do not offer this as an online experience. We recommend that you select a venue of your choice, but we can also book a venue for you. We'd need to discuss various aspects, such as accessibility requirements and the distance to travel, etc.
LENGTH - Usually two days. Please contact us to discuss your specific needs, or we can offer advice.
NEXT RETREAT START - Please ask for more information as we deliver bespoke closed events for your people at your location or a mutually suitable location.
RETREAT DELIVERY - The best environment for this workshop is face-to-face, but we can facilitate this workshop online.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are expenses charged on top of your pricing?
No, our prices include ALL of our expenses. So the price you are quoted is the price you pay.
How many workshops are included on the programme?
This depends on what outcomes you wish to see from attendees after the training has had time to be put to use in the workplace and session and on the topics you want us to include.
On average, this ranges from 7 to 10 sessions.
