Go beyond the boardroom, become a pioneer of the new normal in business by aligning your corporate purpose and performance through leadership and team capacity-building.

Flexible Formats and Content Programmes

  • We work with your leadership and strategy teams to create a perfect itinerary of between 2-3 nights.

  • We also produce set departure itineraries on specific topics of interest for personal leadership, corporate purpose and brand sustainability development.

  • Two of our venues are within an hour of the Sandton (Johannesburg) and Cape Town CBDs. This allows for inspired workshops to be hosted in natural spaces, without overnight accommodation.

Curated and Facilitated

We tailor curated corporate breakaways to your needs, combining purpose-driven strategic intent with natural inspiration, wilderness immersion and local wisdom. Each is supported by strategic facilitation and enhanced with immersive natural and cultural experiences that encourage wider systems-based thinking. Experiences are designed as think-tanks; forums for strategic collaboration and exchange.

Our experiences are suited to:

  • Leadership teams seeking new inspiration and strategic alignment at key milestones.

  • Executive teams navigating shared-value, sustainability and climate commitments.

  • Marketing and Culture teams embedding organisational purpose and sustainability.

  • Leaders eager to invest in personal connection and organisational capacity building.
