This stranded in the desert simulation will familiarize your team with a toolkit that they will then use to analyze your own business issues and challenges. Your team will participate in a variety of faciliated business exercises and outdoor team challenges to hone your sales, marketing and teamwork skills. You will also get exposure to the global marketplace, broaden your horizons and gain a more international perspective.

If your team is already familiar with these tools and using them on a regular basis, we can substitute with other tools. Alternatively, we can make the team building exercises process focused rather than tool focused. This will involve additional costs as we will require one observer/assistant facilitator per team to observe and provide feedback about group dynamics during team challenges.

What we Offer

California

We are an executive consulting firm with expertise in the design and facilitation of business simulations.
We deliver MUCH more value than just "fun in the sun".

What We Don't Offer
|
If you are looking for detailed and rigourous analytical tools and complex financial models, our approach would not be a good fit for you. Our focus is on innovation and using tools that will help executives from fast-paced organizations get a view of the lay of the land to determine priorities, expedite decision making and engage in course correction to keep abreast of marketplace developments. We'll help you identify obstacles, challenges, and opportunities so that you can chart your course when action is needed.
We are a consulting firm specializing in facilitated business team building simulations. We offer our team building programmes at stunning locations worldwide but we are not a travel agent. Our business team building simulations incorporate recreational activities but recreation is not our speciality. Our retreats usually have a gala dinner or a night of entertainment but we are not an entertainment company.
Please note that we do not specialize in strictly recreational desert safaris for small teams.
We can offer this team building event as a luxury desert safari with our without business facilitation.
