WIT
‘n Wisdom Retreats for Women |
|
Considered an integral part of our
You
Go Girl! program, the WIT
‘n Wisdom Retreat series is designed
to assist women as they make their way through
predictable, and not so predictable, life
events. Whether you have just changed
neighborhoods or moved to a new country, put
children in school or graduated them out of
the house, started a new job or left a career,
just begun a relationship or ended one…WIT
‘n Wisdom is for you. If you’ve
lost your groove…or aren’t sure
you ever had one…or look in the mirror
and can’t remember what you are passionate
about anymore, WIT ‘n Wisdom can be
your path to greater vitality and a renewed
zest for life. |
|
| A
woman’s life is full of responsibility and
transition. You are expected to go with the flow…often
with no real sense of where you will end up downstream.
It’s an easier journey with the right tools
in your life’s toolbox and the support of
a caring community. The WIT ‘n Wisdom Retreats
can give you both…strategies and actions plans
for attacking the trouble spots and a group of women
who understand what you are going through. |
| Each of the two retreats
in the program are long weekend sessions (Wednesday
night – Sunday noon). You will share your
stories, find new ways to manage old stresses, and
exchange wisdom with other women. You will laugh
a lot, cry some, have a few adventures, and make
new, lasting friendships in a caring, supportive
community. Trained life coaches will work with you
before, between, and after the retreats. |
| As
a result of your participation in the WIT ‘n
Wisdom Retreat Series, you will find the support
of a community, identify your core values, reassess
your priorities, strengthen your self-confidence,
rekindle your passion, reclaim your personal freedom,
and create an exciting vision for your future. |

Le
Lauvitel Leadership Retreat
Taking time out to engage in
personal training in such difficult times is not
an obvious choice. Yet it is precisely in this
economic environment that leading from a place
of inner strength, with insight and creativity,
is of the greatest value. |
|
The
Lauvitel Leadership Retreat offers an innovative
and inspirational opportunity to develop
leaders’ creativity, self-knowledge
and relationship skills as the fundamental
building blocks of powerful leadership.
Through this experience leaders will develop
the humility, the inner strength and the
wisdom that they need to lead their organisations
today. This leadership training focuses
on discovering hidden strengths, flourishing
in difficult relationships and understanding
how our own expectations and actions impact
our organisations. We expect leaders graduating
from this course to be able to engage, motivate
and guide their people to achieve extraordinary
success in difficult circumstance. |
|
Our
requirements of you:
- You believe that self-knowledge is fundamental
to extraordinary leadership
- You are willing to engage fully in
experiential learning that is challenging
and enlightening
- You want sustainable changes to be
created in your organisation
|
Your
take-homes from us:
- A realisation of your actual and potential
impact on others
- The ability to name the invisible norms,
fears and passions within your organisation
that constrain or facilitate development
- A deeper understanding of your own
creativity and practical tools to lead
change in your organisation
|
The foundation training week ‘Establishing
Your Inner Authority’ delivers core skills
that can immediately help leaders to make a big
difference AND is the basis for developing further
skills in two subsequent training weeks. |
|
Week 1: Establishing
Your Inner Authority |
| Working life is messy. It inevitably involves
friction and uncertainty as unexpected events
and competing visions vie for your attention.
As the leader, your ability to remain centred,
at once holding to your vision and being able
to understand others – will impact the
process and outcome of developments in your
organisation. In ‘Establishing
your inner authority’ your
learning will focus on accepting who you are
and trusting your intuition; establishing
authentic relationships with others as a leader
in your organisation; and recognising the
constraints and freedoms within the organisation
that facilitate or limit its capacity for
transformation or adaptation. Through a combination
of experiential learning and reflective space
you will ground your development at a physical,
emotional, mental and spiritual level. |
