Challenge Program
The Challenge Program provides a unique opportunity for your group to collaborate and participate in hands-on activities to become a more cohesive group. Our programs are developed with your specific group needs at the forefront to create the most productive environment for learning and development. Whether your group is just getting to know each other, or have been together for years, the Challenge Program can help to create stronger bonds between group members in an exciting and new way.
Philosophy
Working as a team is a dynamic learning process. Every group has a unique experience progressing through the stages of group development. The Challenge Program directly engages your group in an experiential learning “laboratory” in order to:
- Provide your group with the opportunity for empowerment and significant growth.
- Customize programs to assist your group to reach their unique goals through an experiential learning opportunity.
- Serve as a creative tool to enhance team building, leadership, communication, trust, and conflict resolution skills.
- Prepare your team members to serve as effective leaders in a variety of situations and with diverse teams.
- Push boundaries to discover personal achievement.
Our facilitators will debrief the initiatives, focusing on the transfer of newly discovered principles, skills, and habits that will lead to improved performance in the real world.
Challenge By Choice
The Challenge Program understands that each person in your group has their own limits. We operate with a Challenge by Choice philosophy, that allows everyone in your group to choose how much they would like to push their own boundaries.
