Leadership Enhancement
Strong teams start with people who understand their strengths, recognize opportunities for growth, and know how to contribute. At The Nature Place, our leadership retreats help your team put that understanding into practice through hands-on outdoor experiences tailored to your organization’s goals, assessments, and development priorities. Participants explore their individual potential while building the skills to work more effectively together.
I'm more reflective and confident when my leadership is sought. I react differently now to situations. And I just know that I have been transformed as a leader.
Team Growth
Our facilitators bring a leadership focus to every team-building activity, helping participants explore and strengthen their ability to lead. We work with you to customizethe experience to your group’s needs and goals—from icebreakers that set a positive tone to a retreat featuring several hours of facilitated activities.

Training Methodologies
Insights
Focusing on four color energies (Fiery Red, Sunshine Yellow, Earth Green, and Cool Blue), this assessment provides a foundation for understanding an individual’s strengths, weaknesses, and style. When applied to a team, this profile can help understand overall group dynamics, interactions, and give language and tools for enhancing team effectiveness.
DISC
Similar to Insights, DISC focuses on four domains (Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientiousness) to profile individual skills and style and how they interact in a team setting. With easy to remember language, this assessment can be applied to any team to deepen connection and understanding.
CliftonStrengths
Across 4 domains (Strategic Thinking, Executing, Influencing, and Relationship Building) and 34 talent themes, Gallup’s CliftonStrengths offers several levels of detail on an individual’s strengths. With a highlight on someone’s top 5 traits, profiles give real insight into talents and consistent traits across time.
Leadership Practices Inventory
Developed by Kouzes and Posner, the Leadership Practices Inventory focuses on the Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership to understand an individual’s leadership style. It provides insight into how individuals see themselves versus how others see themselves.
Myers Briggs
A common self-report personality profile, Myer Briggs has 16 personality types. The assessments are broad and provide details to the specific personality type, not necessarily unique to the individual.
This is the most life-transforming event I have encountered in 30 years around the globe. Participants come hoping to sharpen their technical skills; they leave inspired to become a better person. What better place to discover what really matters? The atmosphere is enchanting, the peaks are breathtaking, and then something magical happens.
Our Programs
We partner with you to design programs that connect individual growth with your organization’s goals. Drawing on our experience with the Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI), Insights Discovery, and DISC, we help participants deepen their self-awareness and explore how their leadership influences team culture.
Through holistic, hands-on experiences and guided reflection, participants examine their roles within the team, explore effective leadership practices, and identify ways to empower others. Our goal is to help leaders turn personal insight into meaningful action—strengthening their teams, shaping the culture they want to create, and supporting lasting organizational success.
Outdoor Learning
Our natural setting brings leadership learning to life. By pairing these assessment tools with hands-on outdoor experiences, we give participants opportunities to put their insights into practice beyond the meeting room. From the ropes course and orienteering to guided icebreakers, our facilitators create a safe, supportive environment where individuals can challenge themselves, explore new approaches, and reflect on their growth.
