| It takes an enormous
amount of energy, time, action and thought to develop and sustain an executive
career. The busy day-to-day schedule of corporate life, often prevents or
interferes with opportunities for individuals to examine or focus on their
own self-awareness, personal issues, professional problems, transitions or
meaning of their lives. With the demands of corporate schedules, executives
often do not allow themselves the time for this personal type of exploration.
For twenty years, the Lappin Group has created retreat and renewal experiences
that enable individuals to focus their attention on these more personal and
private concerns. By bringing together a group of executives in similar
professional and life situations, and housing the group in beautiful physical
settings (mountains or ocean), we are able to provide experiences which enhance
self-awareness. Individuals support each other in their efforts to concentrate
on and explore their issues. There is plenty of time planned for private
reflection and thought. Physical activities such as mountain hiking and
walking become a major part of the process since these experiences tend to
augment the internal orientation.
