The information provided by a facilitator challenges participants to take action based upon their decisions in a group context. The establishment of behavioral guidelines will ensure that everyone fully understands what is expected and what is accepted. Participants are encouraged to explore and expand the range of their abilities in a supportive but challenging environment. As part of a group effort, they may discover untapped personal resources as they adopt the success methods of others. Whether it be a series of games, team initiatives or individual challenges, the activities bring out the best in people, showing them not through lecture or concepts, but through experience, that great things can be accomplished.
Experiences are custom designed to meet the needs of the group, ranging from a full day to a week.
Experienced facilitators design a sequence of activities in consultation with the purchaser of the service to fulfill specific training needs of the group. These events are primarily held either to stir up some energy to begin a longer training seminar, to investigate one specific problem area that a team may be experiencing, or as an Ice Breaker for a conference or workshop. A one day training takes teams through the basic outdoor training experience, including low ropes events. They're designed to fit the client's specific needs, and to address both group process and bonding issues. A two day training provides the opportunity to carry a team to a deeper level of process.
