"Kathy's facilitation of our annual Board of Directors' retreat was a masterclass in how to shape and co-create a joyful, specific,                          next-step-filled future plan. It is a rare skill to be both brilliantly focused & organized and a deeply intuitive listener; to be both 
rigorously logical & analytical as well highly sensitive & gentle; and to be both consummately professional and marvelously fun." 
Pat Gildea – Chair, Strategic Fundraising Plan – Mystic Chorale Board of Directors – Arlington, MA

Why 'Retreat'

• Consider your big picture

           What are you aiming for? What's calling you forward?
          If you had a clean slate, what would you create?
          Would it be what you have now? Or something else?
         

• Clarify why you are doing what you are doing

          Are today's goals the ones you truly care about? 
          Do they address your future? 
          Or are they leftovers from last year or even older?

• Untangle the thorny issues and systems

         What relationship changes could improve your business?
         How well do you appreciate and utilize differences?
         What would create more ease of ideas, directions, actions?
      

• Go forward together

         What's needed to help you collectively direct your path?
         Is everyone clear and headed the same direction? 
        

• Simplify, streamline, share, automate

         What can you simplify, make repeatable or more pleasurable?
         Where can you save time?
         What needs more of your focus for better overall results?

• Rest, connect, get to know each other

         What makes you tick? Laugh? Think? Act?
         What inspires you to discover and develop your talents?
         What helps you lift each other up? Support other's growth?
