Retreat Facilitation
Organizations conduct retreats to develop strategic plans; discuss organizational issues; create or revise their vision/mission; focus on specific issues; and/or celebrate successes. Whatever the need, experts recommend using an independent facilitator—an unbiased meeting manager—whose sole interest is accomplishing your goals, keeping the agenda on track ,and creating a trusting environment where all feedback is welcome.
