Retreat in nature – bringing balance into our lives
As leaders, when we bring balance into our lives, we’re more able to be emotionally present for our children, partners, families, colleagues, friends and neighbours.
Balance stimulates creativity, allows us to be innovative and productive. To be consistent, resilient, adaptable to other challenges we may face. Instead of fighting them head on, we learn to manage them and deal with them in a far more measured way.
Storytelling techniques – using the influence of nature
Through storytelling techniques, we can become far more self-aware, and aware of the things within our lives which needs to be faced, altered or challenged. This becomes a route to inner peace and a better way forward in our lives.
We need not over analyse what surfaces from this process, nor should we doubt or second guess ourselves but accept that this is the direction in which we are meant to travel.
The ‘retreat in nature’ process can help present you with new opportunities in life in which you might otherwise have blocked yourself from doing.
Why storytelling?
As human beings, we all want to feel part of something bigger than ourselves – that ancestral need for a ‘sense of belonging’ to a community.
Think of campfires, sharing fables and stories within a tribe. We feel connected.
We use nature-inspired storytelling as an intuitive leadership development tool to strengthen leaders and teams. The objective is to sharpen high performing workplace culture, that's diverse and inclusive.
Creative storytelling enables you to draw upon your own stories to share and discover more about yourself and one another.
It’s through discovery and self-awareness that can not only change your perspective and outlook on life for the better, but for others who look to you as a voice of reason, hope or source of inspiration.
This process can also assist in uncovering your personal stories, that are meaningful and full of wisdom to impart with others.
By investing in your people and their continuous professional development, can be a huge source of inspiration to them.
While, ultimately, helping everyone to lead more balanced lives. Making you an employer of choice.
An engaged, productive and motivated workforce, high retention, low sickness and absence rates – fuels long lasting business success.
Which is why we work in partnership with you. Together, we'll scope out what type of story development framework will flex to your ever-changing needs and objectives.
We know to exist today and build for long lasting business success we need to constantly evolve, adapt and swiftly change according to global conditions out of our control.
When we share stories, we deepen trust and respect for one another. We naturally lean in and learn more, collaborate together – fuelling ideas, creativity, innovation, growth and drive.
With this further self-awareness, informs us of how we like to operate and relate to one another as a team or a group of collective individuals within the workplace.
When you take care of your business tribes and community, we all grow, weather the storms and shine a light together. This ensures a lasting legacy built on unshakeable foundations to ensure long-term sustainable and healthy business success.
