Team Building and Leadership Development
Team building increases team productivity, improves retention, and help employees develop career critical skills.
We offer multiple options based on team need.
Our programs combine challenging workshops, reflections, and discussion with physical play designed to give participants the opportunity to think critically and react with confidence in a unique and challenging environment.
-
Discover your super-powers: unleash your unique abilities to lead at work. Leaders don’t have to know everything - our evidence-based leadership training activities encourage empathetic and proactive leadership in the face of uncertainty.
-
Everyone has a super-power: help your team find their individual and collective powers. Our team building activities, based on Dr. Schoenle’s knowledge of stress physiology, put participants in simulated situations that cultivate connection and allow team members to find collective strength by leveraging their individual differences.
-
Are your employees battling burnout? Our Personal Growth and Wellness options focus on encouraging play, rest, and joy through new experiences and physical movement.
Our retreats run from 4 to 6 hours, depending on program, group size, and your team needs. You can choose from our standard offerings or we can work with you to develop a retreat specific to the needs of your organization.
