Wilderness and Leadership Training
A two day, hands on course in all aspects of planning and equipping for a weekend trail walk or an extended hiking excursion. Learn how to pick the right equipment for your needs, what foods travel well and which ones to leave behind, how to take care of your feet, the methods to re-supply on the go, how to properly treat water to minimize health risks, and much much more. This workshop may be extended by combining the knowledge gained with a five day hiking excursion under the guidance of our professional staff. Establish a routine of properly packing your rucksack, planning a route, preparing meals, conducting personal hygiene, and making camp.
Enjoy your wilderness experience and take with you the skills we've perfected over the last 20 years. ALSO...Do you have one or a number of people who are ready for promotion to the next level? Great Strides provides leadership and team building seminars and workshops for medium and large sized businesses. Scheduled over 1, 2, or 5 days at our training facility or on location at your office, you have the flexibility to fully develop your employees so they may be better prepared to take on the challenging role of being a leader.
Course curriculum includes the principles and traits of leadership, the qualities, approaches, and skills of leaders, motivational theory and techniques, situational awareness, corporate ethics, goal setting, establishing action plans, communication, and conflict resolution. Courses are a combination of theory based lectures and practical know-how exercises, and our small class sizes allow for ample individual attention and confirmation of knowledge. Great Strides has over 20 years experience in preparing and delivering leadership and team building seminars.
Give your company the benefit of our expertise in this era of corporate greed, labour unrest, and substandard management practices. The future of your business rests squarely on the shoulders of those persons designated to become the next leaders or who are presently in leadership positions. Why leave it to chance that those selected will "learn on the go", or luck into being good leaders? Give them the advantage of a well founded and proven leadership skill set that they can bring back to your firm. Boost productivity by reducing their learning curve and immediately see the results in the bottom line.
