In our busy lives and demanding jobs we often lose the balance necessary to make sound decisions and go through our day efficiently.

Stress, exhaustion and personal factors can all lead to a loss of clarity, a difficulty in useful and positive communication and sometimes even to irritation with our lives, the people surrounding us and our work duties.

How stress effects our leadership capacity and our teams efficiency

Teams may become less productive due to lack of concentration, the processing of information may be delayed and the capacity to team work may suffer.

Leadership demands clear concentration and  communication when these become obstructed by exhaustion and overdemand the results will suffer. Effective leaders learn to manage stress when making decisions and motivating others and in communication with each other.

When leaders communicate relaxed and concentrated the entire organisation will follow lead and benefit.

In managerial teams this will avoid stagnation and losses. leadership demands clarity and positive communication. Healthy meetings are meetings in which compromise, clear communication and balance are key.

How does a silent retreat benefit a team

A silent retreat by GD Travel Incentives is a perfect combination of mindful retreat, reconnection with our inner capacities and bettering our communication capacities.

Our silent retreats are not religious and purely set up to benefit your managerial teams with various workshops aimed at reconnection. We do understand that managers may someitmesneed to make urgent calls and we do not impose a full connection ban we purely suggest a 24 hour no connection policy.

In silence with nature

Our silent retreats always take place in luxury and comfortabel accommodation outside of the cities as we believe reconnection with nature is an important aspect of reconnecting with the self. part of the journey will consist of walks in nature with possibility of yoga, mindfulness training, art workshops, workshops with music and music appreciation.
