We do not see nature with our eyes,
but with
our understandings and our hearts.
William Hazlitt
Every lifeand every organizationis mythic territory. Breakthrough thinking cannot be taught; it can only be learned. To create that learning experience; we delve into myth, and into archetypal psychologythe branch of psychology whose field of attention is the soulto find out what really works. And what works is The Quest.
Your Challenges
Leadership. Team Development. Innovation in a competitive marketplace. Competing priorities. New technologies. Work-Life balance
The list goes on, and can become overwhelming. We face increasingly complex and difficult organizational and personal challenges in a world that is more unpredictable each day. Each of us is being asked to contribute; we all have a responsibility to help lead. The question that confronts us is what is the best way to focus our time and energy?
The Quest provides opportunities to refine your ability to perceive and understand in creative and discerning ways. Through this experience in nature you will and begin to respond to these challenges as they occur in your own situation.
Opportunity
This is an opportunity to focus on the challenges you are facing, in the light of your own capabilities and talents, and to develop creative insights into your challenges and how to lead others through them. The Quest does not attempt to provide simplistic answers to complex problems.
The Quest
The Quest will take you through a Hero/ines Journey in a natural setting. You will learn to observe and understand how nature responds to challenges, and creates elegant solutions for them. The Quest ties the ancient, mythic process found in all cultures to real world situations.
Higher-level thinking involves really getting past habitual and ingrained frameworks. Paradoxically, this is done by thinking both "out of the box" as well as thinking creatively within boundaries, "seeing what's there for what it really is."
The Quest primed my global team to think creatively about real issues that will change the future of our business. This energizing and well-paced learning experience helped make our offsites a success that are already making a difference.
