What to expect
Mentally, Emotionally, and Spiritually... Our programs will make you think and explore. There are no right or wrong answers as you explore with us. That's right, as long as you participate and do your personal best - you get a perfect score. How often do you get that offer in your life?
Leadership, Management, Business, and Emotional Intelligence... Based on Fortunte 500 development processes, Harvard Business School tools, and assessments - our entrepreneurial development program is leading edge. Each person comes away with their own unique action plan, detailing the ideal process to accelerate goals and remove their barriers. It's not scary, it's not hard, it is pure fun.
Outdoor Experiential Learning... Our outdoor classroom is part of what makes our programs so special. We think you will agree. A typical day involves breaking camp in the morning and then working on experiential activities. The later portions of the day and evening is typically dedicated to setting up camp and moving into entrepreneurial skills training.
Worried if you have never been much of an outdoor person? Our programs are designed for people of all capabililities. Our expert guide staff with show you the ropes (figuratively and literally.)
