Corporate Retreats

Organizations commonly use retreats as information sessions, to acquire input and feedback on issues, and to launch strategic initiatives ..all of which are highly useful! What's less common are retreats that cause new behaviors and generate initiatives that go beyond business as usual.

Dorrier Underwood consultants create opportunities for your team to discover new ways to relate to each other and your organization. We generate the momentum required to produce breakthroughs in productivity and company performance, using approaches that are rigorous, intriguing, and fun.

Clients typically conduct Corporate Retreats for:

• Opening up communications & unifying teams
• Aligning teams on corporate Vision and Mission
• Determining strategies for accomplishing Mission
• Developing succession plans for next generation of leadership
• Initiating breakthrough projects

Dorrier Underwood's process honors everyone's contribution, breaks down walls of office politics, and generates creative work sessions that actually produce results. Here's how we do it:

• Collaborate with the person accountable for the outcomes of the retreat (the champion) to clarify the goals for the retreat;
• Interview participants prior to the retreat to have people state their goals for the retreat and elicit their full engagement and participation; and
• Engage participants in follow up conversations to make sure the actions created at the retreat are actually being carried out.
