The Human Leader Report

the human leader edition 5 thumbnail

Retreats are an integral practice in many religions and in yoga, meditation, and well-being communities. Why have they endured and why are they relevant and critical for leaders now?

In the latest edition of The Human Leader, we explain the key elements of our immersive retreats and the three specific shifts that occur from a leader’s "normal state” to what we call an “immersive state”. It’s when a leader is in this immersive state that questions of well-being, purpose and meaning are ready to be tackled.

Benefits

During the leadership retreat, you will:

Unwind into deeper clarity of the essential human leadership qualities needed today and in the future – awareness, wisdom, and compassion.
Step away from distractions, recharge, and reconnect with your natural state of balance to find answers within.
Connect with like-minded leaders in a private space, forming valuable relationships and networks that nurture personal growth beyond the retreat experience.

Our Principles

Our retreats are built around a few core tenets that underpin the design of the experience.

device-free icon
Device-Free

An important part of the retreat is disconnecting from everyday life and turning inward. Without digital devices, distraction turns to focus, and constant doing melts into just being.

In Nature

When we step into a quiet environment of natural beauty, our mind becomes alert. Our usual habits and behaviors are replaced with awareness, awe, and a greater sense of ourselves moving through the world.

Space and Silence

The retreats are a carefully curated combination of silence, powerful experiences, and guided reflections so that you can discover what truly matters in your life. Conversations with others is limited so calm and clarity can emerge from within.

Participant Testimonials

You have no idea how you have impacted my life. For me, it was one of the most enlightening experiences of my life. I am a different person altogether. I am better father, husband, son, friend, colleague, and leader after this experience. You have helped me through one of the most difficult phases of my life.
One of the best experiences in my life; pushing myself to physical and emotional boundaries helped to get a better understanding of who I am. Which in turn leads to more confidence, mental strength and calm inside me.

For me, this was a deep and extremely valuable experience that not only left me mentally and physically renewed, but also gave me invaluable insights into my self as a leader, my purpose and my values. This enables me to even more courageously engage and drive our transformation to meet the challenges and seize the great opportunities that lie ahead of us.
It was amazing and mind blowing for me! I really enjoyed it. And the most important thing: it not only helped me in my leadership role, but also understanding myself better, and getting more clarity to the question: Who am I really?
