A retreat is a rare business opportunity. It’s a chance to bring together the best and brightest members of your executive team, so they can work — away from the office and without distraction — on projects that have a substantial payoff for your organization. At a retreat, you can do things like settle a dispute, write a strategic plan, invent a product, position a service, systematize a process, and create an incentive program. An Important Decision When planning your event, one of your most important decisions will be selecting a facilitator. A facilitator will assist you with the entire retreat. They’ll help you pick its location, select its participants, and set its agenda. They also run its brainstorming and problem-solving meetings. A facilitator must provide support, while challenging the participants to go further in their thinking than they’ve ever gone before. Who to Choose? There’re a lot of facilitation companies out there. Most of them know how to prepare for a retreat and direct a meeting. What they don’t know is high-level business. They’ve never managed a corporate division or structured a deal worth hundreds of millions of dollars. An Executive Background That’s where the Lefko Group is different. When you hire us you get, as head planner and facilitator, our founder and CEO, Mark Lefko. Mark’s hardcore background as an executive is extensive. He’s been the CFO of a six-billion dollar company, an investment banker (where he once bought 25 companies in 29 months!), a Chairman at TEC Worldwide (now “Vistage”), the international CEO membership organization, and has coached over 100 CEOs and presidents in business development. Currently, he serves on six advisory boards. Profit From Mark’s Knowledge and Experience Because of his knowledge and experience, Mark sees things others miss, such as a hole in your business plan or a sales opportunity that you’ve passed by without noticing. Due, in part, to the retreats Mark has facilitated:
A Retreat is a Business Tool Used properly, the ROI a retreat generates is thousands of times what you put into it. Make sure, then, that the facilitator you choose understands communications AND business at the highest possible level. To learn more, click Who Hires Us.
